WSBR-AM Done Forever

     WSBR-AM 740 in Boca Raton will never return to the radio airwaves again. The license of WSBR was eliminated by the Federal Communications Commission last week. The last time the radio station operated was in December 2019 by Beasley Media. 

     Sports programming was on WSBR for over the past 35 years. Al Lombardo was the morning sports anchor, sports reporter and Saturday evening sports host. Jack Armpriester was also part of their sports department. Dave LaMont was a news anchor and sports reporter there during the mid 1980s. The station did broadcast Florida Atlantic University basketball in the 1990s with play-by-play announcer Jim Gallagher. 

     WSBR ran a business talk format branded Money Talk Radio from April 1989 until December 2019. Some of their programs eventually were moved by Beasley Media to sister-station 1470 WWNN-AM.
