[BC] WFLI Trip

[Wayne]

A story about the disassembly of the WE Doherty transmitter at WTOP bound 
for "Jet-FLI!"
Cyril Brennan, Taze Tisdale, Ike Lee and Myself, Took that old transmitter 
apart and stored a lot of the preformed wiring in boxes, and when we got it 
to Lookout Mountain, we found the identity markings illegible and sometimes 
missing from the beautiful interwireing.  It took weeks to fit it all back 
together.  It was a standard Doherty, and not a grounded grid Doherty like 
the WAPE transmitter.  Boy was that a long time ago!
