Over the last week or so we noticed the quality of our signal originating from 90.9 FM was deteriorating. Our station engineer Marty Lee investigated the situation and diagnosed the problem to be with the station’s antenna. We then called in an expert to determine exactly what was wrong.
Several holes were found in the WRAF antenna. I'll upload the pictures soon. We have contacted the manufacturer and are awaiting a quote on replacement parts. There is also a possibility that, due to the age of the antenna (it’s 25 years old) that the purchase of a new one may be a better solution.
The damage has made it was necessary to reduce our power to 20% until this is resolved. Hopefully, further damage which might take us completely off the air, will be avoided by this step.
As soon as we have more details I’ll pass them along. I am asking you to pray that WRAF will have wisdom to know exactly what to do and that finances will be made available. When costs are known I’ll share that information.
As always, thanks for your willingness to stand with this ministry.
