WCFO known onair as Business Radio 1160 WCFO is a business talk radio station, licensed to East Point, Georgia, serving the Atlanta, Georgia radio market. Their sister station is WMLB. WMLB called AM 1160 their home until June 2006, when Atlanta's Air America Radio affiliate, WWAA, went off the air due to low ratings and WMLB moved up the dial to their current home at AM 1690. While WCFO broadcasts at 50,000 watts during the day, they weaken their signal at night to 160 watts. Although, WCFO has filed a construction permit with the FCC to move north to Vinings, Georgia and boost their nighttime signal to 450 watts, making WCFO a Class B station instead of a Class D radio station.
