🎙️ A Storied Past – The Historic Radio House

The station’s first call sign was WFDR-FM, the sister to WFDR AM 1370 in Manchester—named in honor of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose famous Little White House lies just minutes away in Warm Springs, Georgia.
Over the years, the property evolved through several identities—WQCK (1981) and WVFJ-FM (1983)—before becoming today’s one-of-a-kind retreat: Lara’s Chateau at The Radio House.
