We have encountered some issues with the manufacturer that produces the HD Radio equipment needed to complete our upgrades on WBAA Jazz 101.3 FM HD2. Unfortunately, WBAA Jazz HD2 will be off the air until the end of January. This has not impacted WBAA News AM 920 or WBAA Classical 101.3 FM. You can still listen to WBAA Jazz online at wbaa.org/listen-on-air and with the WBAA app. Thank you for your patience as we make these essential upgrades.

A carving on the side of Stone Mountain outside Atlanta honors the Confederacy. There are ongoing efforts to remove the carving, which was created by the sculptor who carved Mount Rushmore.

However, as Emil Moffatt of WABE reports, some people say it needs to be preserved.
