Radio station to return to air

After nearly six months of radio silence, Brockton’s ­WXBR-AM (1460) is poised to make a comeback and return to the airwaves within a matter of weeks, according to the station’s owners.

“Our engineers are working to get the station on,” said Jhonson Napoleon, president of Azure Media LLC, the Miami Gardens, Fla., company that bought the talk radio station from a Connecticut-based firm for $250,000 last year.

Comments

I am happy to report that we ran an air check on Saturday from 6:50 to 7:20. Everything went well and WXBR has never sounded better. We are now waiting on delivery  of a remote unit to begin broadcast full time. It should be here by mid week. On behalf of Azure Media, I wish to thank the community for their patience. WXBR will be back bigger and stronger in the next few days.
