According  to this site, GE built the 50KW transmitter for KNBC in 1932 and
NBC  disguised it as an RCA.

That transmitter at KNBC  looks similiar to the KFI   (on Barry's site  www. 
oldradio.com)  and the WSM sites which  where RCA designed and labeled 
transmitters.  However as mentioned in a  previous post many times the entire 
electrical distribution panels for the  transmitters were built by either GE or 
Westinghouse who specialized in custom  AC and DC switching and distribution.
