La Calle back (again)

[HTX]

They're transmitting, but it's just dead silence. The dozens of listeners who actually know these stations exist must be devastated.

I'm devastated they're not off the air

Did not want to start another topic. But Translators 92.5, 94.1, 99.5,104.5 and 106.1 are all off.

105.3 is working like normal.

All of these are back to normal programming

All the excessive power might have fried their STL equipment LOL

I do want to shoutout 106.1 for being the only legal translator (from what I can tell) out of the bunch.

101.7 also running from 106.9

Throw in Salem's 103.3 in that lonely list as well.

I meant from the mentioned list

I’ve long suspected that many of the translator stations are fed through a common switch point. If there was a complete failure at that point, the translators would not receive any program feeds. This could also explain the occasional “wrong feeds” showing up on particular translators.

Same thing happened during last year's deep freeze. All those stations were on the air, but broadcasting dead silence. Only 105.3 was broadcasting content. At the time, I thought they just had a computer on shuffle playing music 24/7.

It’s strange that completely different translators have the same programming when allegedly fed from different sources. And broadcast for longer distances than they should be able to achieve if following their licensed power.

It has a different owner... Props to them.
