Interruption of programming on 90.3 WKNS and 88.1 in Greenville

Public Radio East is having difficulties with its transmission of News & Ideas programming to our WKNS 90.3 facility. This has resulted in occasional and sometimes lengthy outages of regularly scheduled programming on that frequency as well as at 88.1 in Greenville. During those extended outage periods we are able to re-broadcast the classical music heard on sister station WTEB 89.3. Our engineering staff is aware of the problem and is currently trying to identify the cause at which point we will facilitate repairs as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience. Programming on 89.3 WTEB, 91.5 WBJD and 88.5 WZNB is unaffected by this problem. You can also hear News & Ideas programming on our web stream available to your left in the News & Ideas Network Now On-Air section.
