I misheard that as ARS.  My mistake.  56 is back up now.  Guess they were
able to get a VTR and a dish going at Needham.  I wonder if they'll try to
do the 10 PM news.
(Not a far-fetched idea;  anyone see the news report a few weeks ago of a
Seattle station that did its news *outside* to save on electricity that
would run the studio lights.)
