    failure sounded good

    I heard it frizting out (a technical term) this afternoon. It was great!

    There was an old Beatles song playing – Honey Don’t – but the glitch was causing everything to sound like robots, with everything being in tune and in time, but buzzing and whirring, somewhat randomly switching between special effects. It sounded like a digital delay with massive effects being processed. Very fun and funny to hear the bass line as if it were part of a rave.

      After a few hours of effort,

      After a few hours of effort, we’re back on the air as of 11am today (Wednesday). As is often the case, the problem was upstream from us. I will spare you the discussion about how outdoor cables are run by technology which needs to be tuned depending on the season. #themoreyouknow
