Mobile's NBC is off air... on their website it says:
"WPMI NBC 15 is temporarily off the air. We were broadcasting on generator power, but a lightning hit took us off the air. Tune in to LiteMix 99.9, 95 WKSJ and other clear channel stations."

They have bad luck due to bad weather, period: They lost their broadcast tower? transmitter? when it froze not long after WPMI switched to NBC and added news (late 1996 or early 1997). Until they got a new one running, they were cable-only IIRC.

NBC 15 today is very competitive with WKRG and WALA, but many believe it could've done much better sooner(perhaps beaten 5 or 10 regularly)if weren't for the tower loss. Given the hot programming NBC still had during that time, I'd tend to agree with that assessment. <P ID="signature">______________
