Audible here in NJ with the R75 and 200' "Frankenstein" Roof wire. Though I need to listen in LSB to cut out intermod from 880 WCBS just above. 20 over 9 in SW Michigan at 03:30 UTC. R-75, 155' longwire.

Does anybody know when they eventually came back up, and what the story was? In my sleep stupor I heard the announcer this Tues. morning at around 5AM Central state that they had enough diesel fuel to run generator power for another 24 hours and that he didn't know how they were going to be able to deliver more. He didn't say if he was referring to the studio or the transmitter power. Mentioned he and staff sleeping on the floor but will carry go on. Many mention of people's cell phone batteries going dead about now and no power to recharge. |

Recently read that the WWL transmitter site has a one month fuel supply.
If the generator can hold out that long! After that it's pffft. "SeeingEyeDog" wrote in message ... "Tony Calguire" wrote Does anybody know when they eventually came back up, and what the story was?

Maybe all that water surging into the area juiced up their antenna efficiency? On another related topic: While watching FOX News TV yesterday....did anyone else hear Shepherd Smith told "it's none of your fu**'ing business" by a person he was interviewing. Smith asked a street-person why he was walking his dogs in the middle of a CAT-5 hurricane........good answer, I guess! Yes, they are booming into Virginia as well. It's an understatement to say there's a lot of confusion among both rescuers and the rescued in a situation like that. And a lot of frustration on the part of residents who can't even get to the remains of their homes for at least a week. I'm tempted to say if anyone is caught looting or stealing under those circumstances they should be taken out back, given a 5 minute trial and shot. |

NBC reported the other night that "several" of the N.O. stations had combined their resources at a central location to keep broadcasting.
