The other evening I turned it on and they were playing classical music for at least at hour. I checked my radio to see if the button for WKNC had been reprogrammed without me realizing it. 6/18/2011 6:40:53 PM

I wouldn't plan on it (the broadcast) being fixed today. It appears to be back online, though.
The station was originally scheduled to be down on Friday for about 7 hours for maintenance. From what I understand, there was a completely unrelated problem that happened Saturday morning, which led to this mess. It got fixed (sort of - the engineer said he bypassed the thing that wasn't working, but it was still fuzzy on the radio), and then there was a power outage at Witherspoon last night. 6/19/2011 2:40:07 PM

You would think with all the engineers on campus you could pay one the traditional 7.50/hr and fix the fucking problem. 6/19/2011 3:04:18 PM

Most of the engineers are either out of town, or have some other conflict. As far as I know/have seen, there's only been one around this weekend.
I'm not sure what the current problem is, but the maintenance we were supposed to be down for involved a piece of the actual transmitter on top of DH Hill, so it wasn't exactly an easy fix. What is going on now, though, I have clue. 6/19/2011 3:11:34 PM

The concept isn't THAT annoying, but it feels like it goes on for 15 seconds longer than it should. 6/5/2012 11:43:55 AM
