By day, WEFL is powered at 3,000 watts. Because 760 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WJR Detroit, WEFL must reduce power at night to 1,500 watts to avoid interference. It uses a directional antenna at all times, with a three-tower array. The transmitter is off Island Way in Jupiter, Florida, near the Florida Turnpike (Interstate 95).[3]
