[BC] Counterpoise Ground System

[Bill Harms]

Scott,

	From the technical point of view, I have no reason to doubt what you 
are saying.  I wonder if the facility was state of art in 1947 when 
it was originally built.  I also guess that the station sufficiently 
covers Spokane for the current owners.
