The Little Birdie: “KDKA went off air”

May 24, 2010 Off By Eric O'Brien


“The Little Birdie” flew by PBRTV’s World Headquarters this evening saying that KDKA-AM (1020) went off the air this morning around 11:20 for equipment purposes. The period off the air only lasted a minute or two, but apparently Noon-3 host Mike Pintek made a big deal of the outage on his program saying, “In all my years with KDKA I have never had to sign the station off,” or words to that effect. The birdie flew away after that… Your comments are welcome.
