Can any ATS members report from SoCal as to whether they have lost their local network feed. Apparently cable and sat. is unaffected by the wildfires but all major broadcast from SoCal use the Mt Wilson location and it looks like it went down in flames.

Update :

Officials say it could be weeks before LA County wildfires are contained with reports the Station fire has already consumed 105,000 acres

L.A. County fire has destroyed 74 structures, including 53 homes, and remains out of control, officials say.
