History
WIRA was first licensed September 18, 1946.[5] The station changed its call sign to WYFX on November 1, 1996. On August 15, 1997, the WIRA call sign returned.[6]
Following divorce proceedings involving Caribbean Media Group's principals, the company filed to transfer WIRA and WPOM to Sugar Broadcasting, owner of WSWN, in November 2023.[7] On February 13, 2024, WIRA went silent after it was found to be interfering with another nearby AM station.[8]
