At exactly 8:27 PM channel 41 went off the air.
I wonder what happened. They seemed to be having
problems with the tape during the whole show.

I might be able to offer some info about this. Channels 7 and 20 also went down at the same time, but they've both come back on. Ron Magers made a point of mentioning on the Channel 7 10:00 news that they think that the transmitters on the Hancock Building from which they're transmitting suffered what he called "a power hit." Don't ask me what that means. I'm not sure if Channel 41 also transmits from there, but I think they do. It's 1:00 in the morning, and CH 41 is still down. Perhaps they don't have the resources to get things going again, or maybe their equipment was damaged. It's anybody's guess whether they replay tonight's schedule or just go on blithely as if nothing happened.

Thanks, Elaine! I'm going to copy your post onto the General board, on the same topic.

Elaine and Lila--Thank you both very much for the posts and the information. Much appreciated. I'm sweating bullets over on the GKS board wondering if the signal will be back by Monday evening, and whether or not they're going to deprive us of the scheduled episodes if it isn't. (They failed to show us one episode of Dae Joyoung because of a similar problem.) Let's hope they make the effort to show all of the episodes of every series without skipping any.

Do check out the discussion in Generals on this matter (I opened a thread, and so did pabomandu). All is revealed there.
