Thanks for the report, Rick. Mark had reported to me earlier today that he wasn't getting a signal and I was about to call you to see if you could detect a carrier.

I can log in to our computer at Fern Creek and see that we are getting the stream there and playing it. Theoretically it should therefore be coming out the sound card and going into the transmitter.

I now see that our FCHS computer rebooted Tuesday evening around 7:30. Since it is on a fairly decent UPS, there must have been a power outage of several hours for that to happen.

Looks like we will need to get into FCHS to troubleshoot it.
