[BC] Things that drive CEs nutty

[Mark Humphrey]

I'm not sure that KDNA-TV made it on (as an over-the-air station), so
maybe the creative staff missed their opportunity to melt down the
transmitter.  But back when I worked in television, I was taught not
to stay in black too long, otherwise it would cause an overload.

Didn't the Double Helix Foundation file for a UHF channel after they
sold the original KDNA-FM to Cecil Heftel -- for nearly $1 million? In
1973, that was good money for a large-market FM stick.  Who says
left-wingers aren't shrewd businesspeople?

It looks like today's KDHX-TV is strictly a cable "station", so I
guess they never got a CP.
