Back on, sorta. It pops off with modulation. It's there but not listenable. The audio sounds bubbly and cuts out once or twice a second. They have an old Harris MW-1 transmitter that has been sick for years and can't afford to have it repaired or replaced. They also have a very badly designed antenna system modification that probably cut their coverage in half. It used stainless steel cable for the feed which has a fairly high resistance. Much of the transmitter power is just turned into heat rather than radiating. Don't ever use stainless steel wire for antennas...
