For at least a week now 1170 WFPB Orleans, MA has been off the air.
I don't think this had been reported on any DX forums yet though I may have missed it.
Perhaps not widely noted as the signal feeds more fish than people.
In early October it was noted with very bad audio:Â sub-pirate-quality I'd say. Likely a precursor to something blowing up.
While WFPB stays dark, late afternoon 1170 TA and Brazil DX will be easier here in eastern New England.
