Both FM transmitters mysteriously destroyed during December 16th snowstorm

During the snowstorm of December 16, we lost our two FM transmitters after many years of service. Either there was too much electrical energy in the atmosphere or too much precipitation had frozen on the antennas. Either way, both of them will no longer work properly. New transmitters have been ordered, but I do not expect the signals at 87.9 and 97.9 to return until some time in January.

I found an incredible bargain of two new FM transmitters for $140.00. But since the expense was unexpected, I am now seeking assistance from listeners. If you would like to honor us with a gift this holiday season, visit t1700.net/advertise.html and contribute through PayPal or Patreon, or you may mail a check to 154 Great Road, Lot 8, Shirley, MA 01464. I hope to raise the entire $140 by January 1st.

2020 has been an extremely challenging year for all of us. Thanks to the lockdowns, mask mandates, social unrest, my volunteer time with the Shiva for Senate campaign, and the stolen elections, Liberty & Justice 1640 has, by necessity, captured the overwhelming majority of my attention. Troubadour 1710 has suffered as a result, for which I apologize. My prayer for 2010 is that somehow, more rational thinking will emerge, the Covid mandates end, and the elections reflect the actual results. We desperately need normalcy again where the politics, health, and insight of Liberty & Justice, and the art, culture, and music of Troubadour strike a balance in my time commitments.

Once again, if you would like to help me get the FM signals back on the air, visit t1700.net/advertise.html. This is Jeff from your neighborhood stations wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
