Prior to the licensing of WMFO, the station was home to the AM radio station WTUR. In the late 1960s Tufts University students ran a wire from WTUR's 20-watt transmitter to the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority Commuter railroad tracks that run directly behind the studio building. The signal could be heard clearly as far as Quincy, Massachusetts 15 miles to the south, and as far north as Nashua, New Hampshire, more than 30 miles beyond the station's permitted broadcasting limits. This stunt drew the attention of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) who promptly shut the station down.[citation needed]
On April 2, 1977 Curtis Hall, the building that WMFO resides in, had a major fire. The station was knocked off the air for a short time but was up and running within a few hours.
