Hi peeps, 1st posting, trying not to act dumb. Neat site BTW!
Had the opportunity to visit KTAE 1260 in Taylor TX. I was watching an analog modulator monitor almost constantly go red, complete with a warning light. Manager said not to worry about; no problem I thought, it ain't my ticket on the wall.
I was there just cuz the wife just started doing a DJ shift, she being blind, so I was orienting her to the deck (a TRW IIRC). For levels she'd listen to a radio and keep the audio mucho more kosher than the other DJs. She did announcements, jingles, and IDs for them.
Just a couple weeks later, without warning, KTAE went to network tejano, fired all the live DJs. Their last paychecks were bad too, no funds in the bank. Nice business I thought. KTAE's bank didn't want scene with a blind woman, they overdrafted the hosers account and paid her anyway. ;D

Oh, those lights are advisories. (sarcasm off) I doubt the FCC would do anything more than issue a fine, though they'd probably get more ticked if THEIR check bounced....
