WCTF (1170 AM) is a silent radio station licensed to Family Radio and located in Vernon, Connecticut. The station operated during the daytime only with 1,000 watts of power, using a two-tower directional antenna system.
On May 24, 1979, the FCC granted a construction permit to Tolland County Broadcasting, Inc., for a new daytime-only radio station on 1170 kHz in Vernon. [3] The firm's efforts were troubled by delays obtaining a site. Taking the call letters WRTT for "Radio Tri-Town", [4] the station did not begin broadcasting until November 21, 1982, [1] operating from studios in Rockville with programming of interest for listeners in and near Vernon. [5] The outlet went silent in 1985 due to financial issues; the station was purchased by Family Radio that year for $136,000, with the transaction finalized in January 1986. [1]
