Not getting any sound out of the main speakers in Studio C. They were working up until 9:50 AM, 10 min before my show, then they stopped working. Been here 8 yrs and this has never happened before. Really odd. I'm getting sound out of the studio C headphones and the other speakers in the studio but nothing coming out of the monitor speakers in C.  Not sure if we're getting sound on the 91.5 FM air signal (terrestrial radio}. Can someone check the air signal?  Also how do I get the studio monitors up and running in C. Not that familiar with this spare studio.

Any update?
Also, no idea who sent this.

I'm away for the holidays, but I can check on it when I get back in the next few days. 

The web stream is up so I'm assuming everything is fine. Could be that the monitors in studio C are set to the wrong program, or the volume is just turned down. If anyone is able to go in and check it out, report back to me if you have any further details on the issue.

Check the PGM button. I'm learning studio C as I go along. Is there an estimated time when the new board will be installed?

I'd go in if I knew there was an open hour today. (sub-list CC'd)

Right now we’re working on adjusting the desk so that the new board will fit. Once that’s done, we will fix all the wiring and touch up the equipment in the studio to prevent further issues, then program the board and open the studio again. 

We’re doing everything we can to get this finished by the end of the semester when I leave for winter break (December 13th), but I can’t guarantee that yet.

Hi Sebastien.  Thanks  for the quick response. I tried the monitor volume, still no sound. When I finished my show at 12 noon today the monitors in C were still out. Didn't want to mess with anything else because I'm not familiar with that board. Just wanted to report it to ops.  Happy Holiday.

Yup. 
Everything in C is on Program 1. If the “1” button next to a problematic item isn’t lit, pressing it is usually a Good Thing.

Got it thanks. But if it happens again, where's the switch to turn the monitors in C back on. Post a pic.

Frank, 

Follow what Ray wrote after me. You likely hit that button for program 1 during your show and shut them off. That is what I meant by “switch.” For me, I find it as a best practice to not post pics or create long discussions to the ops list for small issues. 
You can also check the broadcast in a number of different ways. Use your phone or the web put in “listen now.”

Just remember the number “1” for your next show and the red light. Good luck. 

Kris

Thanks Kris. I didn't know that program 1 turns the Studio C monitors on and off.  Never had the problem before.  But get this... I wasn't even sitting at the board when the Studio C monitors suddenly shut down. Very strange, could be something else that caused it, possible faulty speaker wire etc. Anyway hopefully the new board in studio  A will be up soon.

Got it, on the other stuff you mentioned, already know all that.

Thanks again for the monitor info.  Have a great week.

Frank
