Apparently, “lightning never strikes twice in the same place” is a myth for Loudon, Tennessee’s WFIV-FM (105.3). The “Voice of Farragut” was hit by lightning for the second time in as many weeks. Horne Radio GM Tony Cox tells the Farragut Press that all of the damaged equipment from the first lightning strike was hit again, saying, “The replacement parts that were put back in place were then damaged again, so it’s more of the same thing.” The station is still able to broadcast, but with some technical issues. Cox said he was calling in an electrical engineer to inspect their system, and with good reason. According to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration records, only 0.7% of all single-time lightning strikes spanning 35 years have been radio, transmitter & antenna-related.
