There  was a 2 tower AM in Defiance Ohio where the owner decided to make   
some extra money growing Christmas trees...around the towers.  It's  now a  
CC station and the "tree farm" is long  gone.



Was that WONW-AM?
 
In the 1970's a friend of mine and I would go to their super sectionals  
basketball tournaments and broadcast from local H.S gymnasiums. John Hacha was  
the announcer and I rode his levels and did sparse commentary. The broadcast  
gear was junk, so I built up an Altec Lansing remote mixer from a set of  
schematics and away we went. Even with el-cheapo mics it sounded a lot better  than 
anything else they had! They would take our feed for ten minutes or so than  
of to another school gym for ten back to us or on to others. We got about  
$50.00
each for the evening. It was fun.
