WHIO channel 7 down for now

According to their website WHIO channel 7 is having "technical difficulties" which will be effecting most over the air viewers and possibly certain pay TV providers too. They're not saying what the problem is (we live less than three miles from the WHIO's transmitting tower and are having reception problems with them too) but their website says,

"If you watch WHIO-TV Channel 7 with an over the air antenna, please understand that we’re experiencing technical difficulties affecting our signal. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Viewers on Direct TV and Dish Network also may be affected.
A team of engineers are at the transmitter location working on the issue and we hope to have this fixed as soon as possible".

    Updated statement at:
    https://www.whio.com/news/local/whio-technical-difficulties-impacting-over-the-air-viewers/G83RfODFRTuIarSyFRAsXP/
    - repair a "leak" (?) (Where the radio waves just spilling down to the ground?!)
    - hope to be back online today (Friday)

    Also, regarding WPTO 14: it's on an auxiliary antenna until "early 2020", which is limiting their reach:
