INTERESTING WEEK

I missed the first day of it, but this week is one of confusion and change.

First of all, transmitter work was supposed to knock many of our broadcasting stations off the air, or force them to operate at reduced power. That really was news to me when I was asked to write a promo for that Tuesday morning (is that really a promo?) with my limited knowledge of how all that technical stuff works. If I have a question, I usually just ask one of our engineers, but they're hard to find this week.

Anyway, I'm told by some staffers that everything is fixed now and all of our stations are back on the air. Unfortunately, there has been no official announcement. If you tune in and can't find us, we're still off. If we're there, we're back.

Did I mention this is all happening during our crucial fundraising period for TV? Oh yeah, programming is also being changed at the last minute based on how the shows fared on other channels during pledge times (sorry Josh Groban), so I don't really know what's on, or if we're even on the air.

All in all, I'm confused and now you probably are too. All I know is that KUAZ is on the air as normal and KUAT-FM is on at 89.7 FM (maybe 90.5 too) and we're always available online.

And one final thing...as the "purveyor of podcasts" at the station, a musical group we interviewed keeps changing its name, which make its hard for me to get the story online.
