WHFB (1060 AM) is a U.S. radio station dually licensed to the Twin Cities of Benton Harbor and St. Joseph, Michigan, broadcasting a Talk/Variety format. 1060 AM is a United States and Mexican clear-channel frequency; KYW and XEEP are the dominant stations on this frequency.

It broadcast from its studios on Fairplain Avenue located in Fair Plain, Michigan, an unincorporated area south of Benton Harbor.[1] The stations transmitter and broadcast tower are also at this location.

History

WHFB was founded in 1947.[2]

Previously the station had long aired a syndicated Talk radio format as "All Talk - AM 1060" and later "Fox News Radio AM 1060".[3][4] Over the years, hosts heard on the station have included Laura Ingraham, Bill O'Reilly, Bob Dornan, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, and Monica Crowley.[5][6][7] The station went off the air in June 2012,[8] and the station was sold from WHFB Broadcast Associates to WIMS owner Gerard Media, LLC.[9][10]

In October 2013, it was noted back on the air with a simulcast of WIMS, and the stations' top-of-the-hour ID mentioned both WIMS and WHFB.[11] By the end of 2013, the station was playing a wide variety of music, independent of WIMS. By 2015, talk programming had replaced most music on the station. The station's music format is a broad mix of Adult Contemporary, Classic rock and Alternative Rock. Former sister station WHFB-FM is now separately owned and has since changed call letters to WQLQ.
