I sure hope KFI keeps it off.

KFI has been having some problems with the new Nautel transmitter, and
is using the DX 50 instead; it's not HD equipped. The HD will be back
when the issues are resolved.


I hope they don't turn the HD back on.

The signal level looks like it dropped a little.

Is the backup transmitter on the same antenna?


If it's an MW-50, it should be an "alternate main", and should be able to
be connected with the real tower.


It's a DX 50. Few of the 70's vintage MW series are in use any more,
thankfully. And the auxiliary runs, like the main, into the pseudo half wave
tower. Alternate main means it is used regularly, while an aux is a backup.
The DX 50 is definitely a backup to the Nautel.
