Ken is referring to the lights on the radio tower outside his building. Please check on this ASAP and get back to Ken.
We need to have a better response time on these kinds of problems.

Ken, We never had lights on that tower. It’s not tall enough to need them. That would be the reason for them not working.

Even though there are no lights on the tower I see no reason why they should not work. During this critical period of the merger we need to make things work even though they do not exist,
since many of the things which DO exist do not work.
