It was in my column this morning at fybush.com. They lost the transmitter site they've used for the station's entire existence and are seeking an alternate site. (I know some details about their plans for a new antenna that I'm not yet at liberty to share.)
They filed a few months ago to go from DA-D to ND-D (made possible by the deletion of the old WDIS 1170 Norfolk MA) in preparation for having to relocate. I expect they'll be back within a few months.
