OK, not Heroic....

But frankly, the efforts to keep the transmitter on the air and information flowing require a great deal of persistence and plain hard work in the face of adversity. The weather was horrible, the logistics were daunting, and you try to find a staff of nine people anywhere to work around the clock to keep the beast fed, and making sense to an audience hungry for information and news about their local area, when they have been cut off from the rest of the state, let alone the country. The only way out of the area was by air or boat until Wednesday, when US 30 reopened to one-way traffic. And, yes--KMUN was also on the air, and broadcasting news and information, as well. I felt that the staff of KAST were more innovative at getting out and about in the community. KAST was the designated station of record, and received help from the Sheriff and other public officials that KMUN didn't get.

But your point is noted.
