WVU says flagship station’s glitches will be fixed for next game

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia University fans who traveled to this year’s home football opener might have noticed problems if they tried to listen to the radio broadcast.

“Unfortunately, it was an equipment issue that reared its head on game day,” said Matt Wells, senior associate athletic director for external affairs.

Equipment that receives the satellite signal for broadcasts on WZST-FM, where Mountaineer games are heard in the Morgantown area, checked out fine in the days leading up to the game, Wells said.

But when it was time for WVU’s home opener against James Madison, the signal started cutting in and out.
