Dark (broadcasting)

In the broadcasting industry, a dark or silent radio or television station is one that has gone off-the-air for an indefinite period of time. Unlike dead air (broadcasting only silence), a station that is dark does not even transmit a carrier signal.

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    The mind too closes as it were. As the window might close of a dark empty room.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
