OFF THE AIR!

Last week we had a lightening strike that hit our tower. The result was that the antenna needs to be replaced, and also our transmitter. This is a very expensive proposition. Estimates are between $ 50,000 and $ 60,000. We are working on and will get back up as soon as we can. Until then, you can still listen to us via the internet, and we will try to present some programming that you don’t hear everyday. But we can’ t really ask the DJ’s to come in when they know that they won’t have a show.

Upon completion of this course participants will be able to:
