Found - Grey Cat


Grey cat found on the north shore of Bear Lake (Three Pines Rd.).  Found Saturday night (11/10/2012).  No distinctive markings are obvious - somewhat thin, but appears to be in good health.  Unsure of gender at the moment, but very tame and generally interested in staying put.  Allows petting and picking up, but meows (medium tone) in protest when moved.  Shelter, food and water are currently being provided.  

Is this your cat, or do you know who it might belong to?

Dismantling of WMTE-FM (Kool 101.5 FM)?

Is Manistee's Kool 101.5 (WMTE-FM) being dismantled? 

There are unconfirmed reports that the antennas, that permit the station to broadcast its signal widely, have been removed from the studio site and the transmitter/tower site. While a low-power transmitter is allegedly at the 52 Greenbush St. studio site, keeping the station on the air, the signal does sound considerably weaker from locations in the Bear Lake area and in some parts of the City of Manistee. 

Also, a notice filed with the FCC about six weeks ago appears to indicate that the Greenbush St. studio will not be used for broadcasting in the future. Instead, the station's signal will originate from Ludington, at 5399 W. Wallace Ln. That's the location of Synergy Broadcast headquarters, which took over management of the station in June. Synergy also took control of Lake Michigan Broadcasting's other stations at the same time: WKLA-FM 106.3 Ludington and WKZC-FM, "Z95," Ludington.
