With the sale of sister station WFUR-FM (102.9) there is now only one WFUR on the radio dial.
The "Hour of Praise" had aired weekly for about 10 years on a variety of stations throughout west Michigan.
Kuiper had a clothing store in the Grand Rapids area and did the "Hour of Praise" on a volunteer basis.
The few Christian radio stations on the air at that time were supported by a single church or on-air fund raising.
Secondly, he wanted to allow various Christian groups to purchase airtime, which at that time was not the norm.
The station later returned to the air as WYHA, part of the Bible Broadcasting Network.
