There was an FEBC station in Okinawa starting in 1958. After the reversion agreement, the station became a commercial operation (Kyokuto Hoso Radio) as religious broadcasters were forbidden under the Law on Special Measures for the Reversion of Okinawa. Per a decision taken by the Diet of Japan in 1983, the station shut down in 1984.[21]
