Mobile What's going on with 92.5?

In recent days, the 92.5 signal is silent, although WZEW-HD3 is still pumping out the "Soul" format, which is basically a network feed with NO local ads, liners, or even a station ID.
I know the stations have been through a lot in the last few months/years, but are they getting ready to cast off 92.5?

Radio itself is a dumpster fire, but this one especially stings since WZEW/WNSP is a local company that has been dealt some devastating blows in the last few years.
 
It's certainly their most neglected station. I didn't even know it had a Facebook page or website until I searched for contact info. Turns out someone on their FB page asked why it was off 2 weeks ago and never got an answer, so that's definitely concerning.

There's a contact form on the website so I sent a message there and via (barf) Facebook Messenger, but I doubt I'll get a response. I sent an e-mail to their GM a few years ago asking if they could put me in touch with the engineer regarding the loss of song title info on the the HD feeds but never heard back from anyone. Their 92.1 HD1 has been stuck with the same song/artist info for like six months, lol. And the HD2 and HD3 just says "HD artist" and "HD title" or something like that.
 
92.5 the Soul also have satellite issues like one time, this station has been down for only almost a week before it went back up. And on the Sound of Mobile app, thier song history hasn't been updated but its other 3 sister stations such as The Crab are still up to date.

92.5 the Soul is still a use as an escape from southern blues on WLDT during Saturdays. Speaking of switch, The Soul plays some of the songs WLDT doesn't play as usual unless you mention The Sweat Hotel.

I just want The Soul to get as much attention as The Crab with real DJs, local ads, and a new station ID. The Soul is really better than WDLT and WBLX (during Steve Harvey Morning show).
 
at one time Tim Camp was the engineer. He had friends in the market who would help if he was out of town. With Tim's passing, no idea now.
I should move back to Mobile and help....
