	The Channel 3, WWMT TV transmitter site on the north side of Gun  Lake 
here in west Michigan is probably the quietest transmitter room around. 
All of the transmitters have the blowers in the basement. They have 
pedestals that the blowers (all the same type motor) sit on. The air 
into the basement plenum is 100% electrostatically cleaned from the 
outside air. Been that way since they have went on the air in the 50's. 
A great transmitter site with art deco ceiling lamps still in place.
	Very clean, very quiet.
