WZRD (88.3 FM) is back on the air!
WZRD 88.3 FM is the radio station of Northeastern Illinois University, which airs a number of progressive radio programs (including Democracy Now! twice daily).
WZRD had been off the air for a number of weeks because of licensing problems with the FCC.
However, at about 6pm this evening (February 18), the FCC granted WZRD a temporary authorization to resume broadcasting.
The long and the short of it: WZRD is back on the air.
