Breaking news: Radio station WARM 590 AM back on the air

AVOCA -- Nearly one week after a transmitter problem forced it off the air, radio station WARM 590 AM is broadcasting today.

While there had been reports that the long-running AM station was off the air permanently, federal officials said they never received official word from Citadel Broadcasting, the station's owner. WARM had posted a notice on its Web site that a transmitter problem had interrupted its service.

"As far as we're concerned, they never filed anything with us," FCC spokesman David Fiske said of the station's situation.

Check back for updates and read more in Friday's The Times-Tribune.

We'll be going through Scranton in a couple of weeks (for a train excursion
on the Reading & Northern). I'll try to listen for a while and report back
(if I remember to!).
