At about 3:10 this afternoon, Altrok 90.5 HD2 went ON THE AIR, transmitting on a digital signal that piggybacks on 90.5 The Night's FM signal, all of which emanates from its tower in Lincroft, NJ.

Our first song, funnily enough: The Dream Syndicate's "Tell Me When It's Over". With that, Modern Rock returns to the Jersey Shore.

Well, this is a bit of help - according to the FCC, more help is on the way. Most FM stations' digital signals are only 1% of their total power, but they've just raised the limit to 10%. Hopefully, we'll be taking advantage of that soon...

Hey, actual real radio station here, with Dead Milkmen (no, not that song by Dead Milkmen, the other one. No, not that one, either - the other one) coming up.

And new stuff, too.

And more old stuff (do I see Classix Nouveaux? Perhaps...)

With no commercials (thanks, NPR!)

We've got news headlines at the top of the hour 'til Noon, too, so you can stay (marginally) up to date. Which is nice.
