Tom,

There`s no heat! Your notice was appreciated and tnx for the trouble. All one can do is report what one hears, and then the stations will do what they will do (or not). It would be nice if they would be more explicit in the first place.

73, Glenn

 I heard that brief announcement for
 maint shutdown a
 minute or two before midnight EST during the TOH break for
 John Batchelor show. The announcement did not mention when
 or how long this off period would be. It took me
 a few
 minutes to fire up the computer and log into e-mail
 account. During that few minutes I was in another
 room
 out of earshot of the radio.
 
 So - by the time I returned that "brief" off period may
 have already passed. I listened to WJR for two more
 hours
 and there was no off period or any further mention of it!
 
 You never know if it will be productive. However,
 about
 ten years ago I heard a similar announcement while
 listening to KMOX. I sent out the word as soon as I
 could
 and that time KMOX did indeed go off for several hours!
 
 If WJR had gone off the air for a long SP and I was up and
 listening and heard something good and said nothing about
 it I still would have taken the heat!
