WJLX 200' tower reported stolen

Where is the OWNER in all of this? Paraphrasing the immortal words of Ricky Ricardo, “You’e got some ‘splaining to do!”

These FM translators are not revitalizing AM. Instead they are moving the remaining AM listeners to FM. And, most AM listeners switched to FM forty years ago.

I agree. When I first heard about these things in the 'AM Revitalization Act', I thought 'Now just how is AM going to be 'revitalized' by driving the last remaining people listening to FM? And where is 101.5 on AM again? Because 60% of these AM with FMX stations rarely to NEVER mention their home AM frequencies or incorporate it as boldly into their branding. Or why some stations reduce AM power, anything to play down the AM side when the AM side is what this is all about?

And how the hell does all this revitalize AM, again?

South China Post Radio silence: Alabama station goes off the air after its 60-metre tower stolen

AW GREAT!! Now everybody in China is talking about it! Is everybody happy now?

And now, like the rest of us, they're all asking "OK. Look. Like what f... Why didn't somebody at the station notice? Who was paying attention the night or year or whenever this thing disappeared? And why was nobody not even listening to this station"

And most of all, what does it say about AM radio everywhere and the various gimmicks used to fool ourselves we can overcome it's technical limitations and most of all, public image?

Okay, this is a constant rehash of a vague news article about a station that may not even have been operating on AM.

Time to put this to bed.
