A favorite little AM station KLEB "The Rajun' Cajun" was near ground zero of last week's Hurricane Zeta, and I was a tad worried about them. Last Monday though they were back on the air, albeit at low power, likely off a portable generator. Getting them since has been hit-and-miss up here on the MS coast, but they were coming through fairly well today. Even though they're at low power for now, it seems probable that the tower survived Zeta and they'll be back at 100% in a matter of weeks. Funny though, snooping around on the web, can't really find any recent stories on them. Certainly nothing Zeta-related.
Anyway, they're definitely on the air, and that is an encouraging thing. Where else do you get songs like Crawdiddy's Momma's Cookin' Gumbo played back-to-back with The Cure's Just Like Heaven? The variety out of that station is astonishing.
Update 11/10: KLEB's back to full power, and we've got good, normal reception on the MS Coast again. Woo!
