Outage hits KPOW

A power outage at 12:30 p.m. Sunday put KPOW’s transmitter down, but not down for the count.

“It ended up frying something, said KPOW co-owner Scott Mangold on Monday afternoon.

Mangold said they had found the source of the problem.

“I think we got it isolated,” he said.

At around 3:30 p.m., Mangold said they were working to get it back up and anticipated the transmitter would be online and broadcasting soon.

“Any time now,” he said.

UPDATE 4/7: Mangold says a backup transmitter is scheduled to be installed this (Wednesday) afternoon.

  1. No big loss , all you here on KPOW anymore is right wing horse flop talk shows. That radio station used to be a lot better 30 years ago.

  4. Figures , " long live the horse flop " , this would come from no one but a brainwashed right wing party hack . Better listen to some more " horse flop " , your braine isn't pickled enough yet. Wyoming politics are changing , one day we will actually have fair & balanced representation . Not the same old storm trooper GOP krapola taht so many are born into.

    KPOW is as bad a FOX 'News,' their transmitter could get fried everyday for all I care. Those GOP fools in PORK County can stick it.

  12. I prefer freedom of speech. Unlike the Rat and Buddha, I don't mind listening to all points of views... the Right deserve just as much freedom as the Left..
