WFYL (1180 AM) is a daytime-only radio station licensed to King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, and serving the Philadelphia metropolitan area. It broadcasts a Christian talk and teaching format. WFYL is owned by Lighthouse Support, a non-profit organization specializing in Christian broadcasting. [3] .

By day, WFYL is powered at 1,000 watts, using a non-directional antenna.
