Fire Causing Problems For Scottsdale Station

5-20-2012

They call it the Gladiator Fire in Scottsdale, Arizona and it's giving Sierra Broadcasting fits. Sierra Broadcasting GM Michael Mallace tells Radio Ink his station is moving to back up facilities. "We were off the air for 19 hours Thursday night through Friday on KNRJ.  We were running a seven hour loop of music on KAJM during that time as we lost audio to the site on both stations. Currently, we are off the air on KNRJ since 2AM Sunday morning. And we have been on a backup transmitter at greatly reduced power on KAJM since about 2PM Sunday afternoon. We have lost all power to the site due to the fire. We are live on our streams and are updating people on Facebook, twitter and our website."
