STATEMENT FROM IIC
“Inter-Island Communications Limited (IIC), CEO Glenn Blakeney takes this opportunity to inform the public about the disruption of service that resulted from HOTT 107.5 FM and MAGIC 102.7 FM being knocked off the air when a severe lightning flash hit the transmitter tower last night.
Mr. Blakeney was at the tower site all morning working with IIC Chief Engineer to resolve the equipment malfunction issues.
MAGIC’s terrestrial signal remains off-air, so listeners won’t hear the station when listening to stereo systems at home, their workplace, on car radios or transistor radios. However, listeners are still able to receive the HOTT FM transmission, although Live MAGIC programming content will be heard (on HOTT)
Notwithstanding, it should also be noted that both stations can be heard via their 24-hour online internet 🛜 streams.
Mr. Blakeney would like to convey his apology for the disruption to service albeit due to extenuating circumstances beyond IIC’s control and he expresses his appreciation in advance to loyal listeners for their understanding, patience and indeed their continued support. Thank You. ”
