Second time today they pulled the plug on Rush !

Posted on 10/05/2012 11:41:07 AM PDT by pioneerstakethearrows

We are getting static for the second time today here in the Metro NYC area. 770 AM.

The first was for 10 plus minutes. This one has been for 8 so far.

What's going on ???

I have been noticing a lot of dead spots on ONLY the two talk radio stations in North Central Florida lately.

Now it’s on. Now it’s off again. Static again.

Reported a couple of days ago the sun spots/atmospheric conditions would interfere with satellites, transmissions.

I am in Santa Barbara, CA we are losing signals on the local station, so I switched to the internet, signal still going in and out.
COX cable said there are sun spots and will last another ten days or so.
Fortunately I have the podcast set up and each hour only takes about 10 seconds to down load, so will listen later without the blips.

I use Internet streaming to WMAL or KNZZ. KFI 640 Khz (Los Angeles) get humming sound when Rush is on plus KFI news are too annoying they’re big fan of 0bama they don’t miss mention 0bama 0bama 0bama every hour and half the hour. :-(

Only on the two talk stations, mind you.

I'm lucky. When I can't get WABC (like today), I can get WAEB out of Allentown, PA. And vice-versa.

I don’t know the exact details, but I would guess that the major NYC stations are broadcast direct from antennas on top of the Empire State Building and elsewhere, whereas national talk radio may be broadcast from satellites.

And many of the major stations originate in New York studios, so they don’t have to be transmitted across the country—at least in NY.

I subscribe to Rush 24/7 so I don’t have to put up with that static, high school baseball or hockey games, etc.

So, the DemocRATS are ginning up sun spots to stop talk radio? So now the sun is against us...

I turned him off on my own today—His repetitious rants about things we already know have moved beyond tedious.

I’ve been noticing that the T.V. goes on the “fritz” (telephone cable), sometimes, when the talking head on FOX NEWS says something detrimental towards the President. Usually for just about 10 to 20 seconds. I figure it’s prolly somebody local, some engineer at the local station who’s in love with the President.
Anybody else getting the “fritz” on the Fox network?

The same thing happens here occasionally. Fox goes black for 10 or fifteen minutes but none of the other news channels do.
