7/22/25 – Crown Mountain Tower Planned Power Outage

July 15, 2024 by Pitkin County Telecommunications

Update: All services have been restored at Crown following a successful generator replacement.

Staff will be replacing a back up generator at the Crown Mountain Tower Site on Monday, July 22. Power will have to be taken down as crews remove the old generator and install the new one. This will take a few hours in the morning and will disrupt the TV and FM broadcasting from this tower. Work will be done as quickly as possible in order to have the airwaves up and running for the rest of the day.

Power Outage at our Basalt Office 6/5/2024

June 3, 2024 by Pitkin County Telecommunications

Our Pitkin County Telecom office is about to get more environmentally friendly with solar power being installed to our office in Basalt. Contractors plan to do electrical work on Wednesday, June 5, 2024 between 8am and noon, give or take any unexpected problems. This work requires the power to be shut down for our building. This will mean that channels 2, 20,  9 and 7 will be off the air during this time. Please be patient with us during this work. Upon completion of this solar project we will also be installing a back up generator so future power outages should not be major shut downs for our building and it’s broadcasting systems. 

Thanks for your continued support of our translator system.
