Where's The Beat (and WSGR in general?)

So people have been asking what has been going on with the radio program and questions about the radio station signal itself. The station is on the air but is suffering from some tech problems. It's is running at full power but when you tune it in it sounds all distorted. There is a bug somewhere in the system. The station is waiting on the technician to show up and fix the problems.

What it boils down to is that there is one licensed tech and he does not live in the area and the does the work for most of the radio stations in the area. He's only in Port Huron one day a week and takes care of all the stuff he has to do on that day. The college station gets overlooked sometimes. EVERYbody involved in the station is trying their best to get the station back up to speed but hands are sorta tied when it comes to this aspect of it. The show won't be on tonight and next week is the Harvest Moon Party BUT we hope to get it rolling the week after that (provided the tech probs are taken care of.)

Comments and concerns can be found here.
