WFME (106.3 FM) is a radio station airing Christian music and teaching programs. Licensed to Mount Kisco, New York, USA, the station serves Northern Westchester and Putnam Counties. The station is owned by Family Stations Inc. Family Stations has applied to the FCC for permission to program the station with Family Radio's non-commercial religious format from its former 94.7 FM station's studios in West Orange, New Jersey and in a public statement, Charlie Menut Family Radio's Regional Vice-President and former station manager/chief engineer for Newark, New Jersey's WFME (FM) stated before that station signed off that WDVY would assume the WFME call-sign until a new suitable AM station in the New York City tri-state area could be acquired.

History

The station went on the air as WVIP-FM on 1964-01-15. On 1993-09-26, the station was sold and changed its call sign to WMJU, and on 1999-11-16 to WFAF.

It was announced on February 25, 2012 that WFAF would begin simulcasting the country music station WDBY "KICKS 105.5 FM" from Brookfield, Connecticut on 106.3 starting Thursday, March 1st.
