Does everyone know about OffAirMon on the board and what it does?

Pot that up on the Wheatstone console - it’s connected to an FM receiver in the rack.   If you’re getting levels, then it’s receiving a signal and you’re on-air.  No levels means no broadcast and you are not on the air.  It’s a handy sanity check that I implore all the DJs to use.

One last note, the stream is separate from the transmitter.  Hope this helps anyone that might have confusion as to whether they are on-air.

     I freaked out during my show, thinking we hadn't been broadcasting for hours.
