Listening to WXRV (92.5 Haverhill) and it's been a tough day at the
xmtr, apparantly.  Has dumped a number of times since 11 a.m. usually
for 5-30 seconds or so.  Tip of the headphones to the jock on duty for
not drawing any attention to the PIA experience.  Curious, do they
have a back up or are they born to be wild?

So that's why I can hear WBUR (90.9) at my house today.... (I live in the
shadow of the mighty River).

WXRV does indeed have a backup... xmtr AND tower. The old tower is next
to the main and half the size with an 8 bay, I think. It's connected to
the late '70's era Harris. The main is a 3 year old BE... that's had
MANY-a-problem, as I remember. And I swear the older xmtr sounds
better...

BTW, both studios and xmtr site have generators. Don't get me started on
how many times those things have failed...
