[BC] KSWP/KAVX woes (Lufkin, Texas)

[Bob Barnswatts]

I sent a letter to the editor, that is nuts.  And what transmitter costs 
$163,000?  Heck, a tv transmitter is cheaper than that.

Holy cow this story is fraught with fraud.  I told the newspaper this 
was their chance to do some research and expose the fraud of their local 
religious radio.  Bet they don't.

I explained all about transmitters and how the older it was the more 
likely it could be kept on the air by proper maintenance, and that no 
manufacturer we know of has went bankrupt anytime soon.

What a crock of crap.  Well, on to something more interesting.
