The 640 KFI transmitter just dropped out. Just before it dropped out
started sounding a little funny.

It's only been on a few weeks now.


They are using the old Harris DX series, I believe. The new transmitter
had a catastrophic failure, and a new Nautel is apparently on rush order.


I thought they had an old Continental 317 (best damn AM transmitter ever).


The Harris was the main, and the floor furnace the aux. I am told that the
new BE selfdestructed, and will be replaced with a Nautel (all into the new
tower) and the DX is the temporary main.
