WLEZ 98.1 FM now silent

Hey all -

WLEZ 98.1 FM (LPFM) in Jackson went silent on Saturday night, 12/31/2016:

That is a real shame, and hopefully they will be back on soon. I think that WLEZ had been in continual operation for almost 13 years now, which is quite a feat for a Low Power FM station.

Sure hate to here. I know that Mr. St. Pe' did all he could to make it a success!
 
I found out Saturday afternoon that it would shut down at midnight. I'm not aware of any future plans. The studio is currently located at Jackson State.
 
I went to the station around thirteen years ago to volunteer because I had read that they were wanting volunteers. This was on the first day that I had known about it. I spoke to a lady named Terry about volunteering, and she told me that I would hear from the station. I have been waiting all these years, and the station never seemed as though they wanted volunteers. I have been listening to the station on and off ever since WLRM (780) stopped playing the Music of Your Life music (which seemed excellent for an A. M. station).
