WFDR (1370 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a classic hits format. It is licensed to serve Manchester, Georgia, United States, south-southwest of metro Atlanta. The station is currently owned by Legacy Media Holdings, LLC.[1]
The stations' call letters WFDR are a reference to former U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had his Little White House vacation home in nearby Warm Springs, Georgia.
As of September 12, 2016, WFDR is being relayed on FM translator W247CJ at 97.3 MHz.
In or around 2019, Christopher Murray's Georgia Radio Alliance acquired WFDR and flipped it to "Fox FM" with a Classic Hits format resembling it's Macon/Warner Robins area sister station WBML. "Fox FM" is programmed by former WSTR "Star 94" midday host Kevin Steele; Steele also hosts mornings on "Fox FM." Aside from Steele, other local personalities on the station include Jeremy "Hawk" Hawkins, who hosts afternoons on "Fox FM;" Hawkins also serves as Fox FM's voice-over talent. Syndicated programming on Fox FM includes Daily Dees hosted by Rick Dees in middays and Scott Shannon Presents America's Greatest Hits on weekends.
