Any Columbus Ohioan's know what the hell is going on with WVKO?

Nothing but dead air now since yesterday afternoon, and no one is answering the phone over there. I hope to God we haven't lost the only progressive talk station we've ever had, ONCE AGAIN! Last time they were bought out by Clear Channel, and you can all guess what garbage that was. Turned it into a "Christian Station". A concerted effort by the right to silence the "descent" of progressive talk in Ohio. Interesting that with the election just two weeks away, all of the sudden the only progressive talk station in this region has gone mysteriously silent. Gee, I wonder if it was because of all of the democratic ad's they were running...

We'll be off the air until about 9 a.m. tomorrow, Wednesday, as technicians work on an unscheduled maintenance issue at the transmitter. Thank you for your patience.
