IdahoPTV Salmon Translator Back in Operation
Idaho Public Television engineers have repaired and reinstalled the translator on Mount Baldy outside Salmon, and the translator is back into operation.
Rich Van Genderen, director of technology for IdahoPTV, says the translator, which was out of commission for approximately five weeks, first became inoperative after a spring storm swept through the area. The resulting snow barred access to the mountain until late last month, leaving the Salmon area without an IdahoPTV signal until this week.
