WIFM-FM (100.9 FM) is a radio station licensed to Elkin, North Carolina, United States.
Ralph became perhaps WIFM's best-known News Director, and won many awards for his outstanding news coverage, bringing the station statewide, and even national attention...especially during the tragic Siloam Bridge collapse in the mid 70s, when Ralph's reports were heard on ABC Radio.
In 1994 Alan Combs, WIFM's station manager, John Wishon, WJOS's station manager, and Ken Byrd, an announcer on WJOS left WIFM, taking over the reins at WWWC in Wilkesboro, which they purchased jointly.
Mike Walker was promoted to Operations Manager, and transitioned the format from oldies to adult contemporary.
