4 Townsquare Stations Crash in Cheyenne

Z

ZantennaG1

This morning, 101.9 King FM (KIGN), 106.3 Now FM (KLEN), 650 KGAB, and 99.5 K258DN all fell silent for a while, with three of the stations returning to nornal operations within the hour, but 99.5 is still silent. All 4 of these stations weren't actually "off" the air, instead their transmitter was on, and you could hear an engineer fixing the sound wires (various clicking noises).
This is an interesting fail for sure, but life goes on as normal

"Fixing the sound wires"? What's that process?

Whoops, bad verbage on my part. The towers were transmitting, but the sound wasn't working.
 
This must be "contagious" among Townsquare stations....!!
The Townsquare country station near me loses audio about twice a month for several minutes at a time...
Carrier is on, just no audio....
I know they've had issues with their Zeta (?) automation system since its inception about 2 years ago....
Wondering if it could be related.....

That could be the reason!
 
Somebody obviously trying to lengthen a short circuit.
