Hello,
Rubi has been off the air for the past 2 months.
What started as technical and electrical problems turning into a typical DR nightmare, with everything collapsing at the same time. My guess is, Phil and Chip decided it was a sign to close the doors and carry on with their other business ventures.
Although there were other interested parties, in a great show of confidence, Phil and Chip offered me the station. They are both very commited to Rubi, and have been incredibly helpful in making the transaction and transition as easy as possible. My hat's off to you both.. Thanks.
Here's what's happening. I've bought Rubi, power problems have been fixed. 90% of the hardware problems have been fixed, or are in the process of being.
New office has been aquired; The station will be moving to a more economical location. All that's left is the physical move, connection of the new studio tower, and assembling the transmitter house on Isabella. My target date is April 1st, and so far, that is still a valid date.
I'd like to thank everyone for their support, input and positive remarks.
It's clear that Rubi has been missed by alot of people, and I'm proud that we will be continuing the work that Ricky originally set into motion.
-10 days and counting..
Steven Wilson
