>The cell cite revenue is probably carrying the entire weight of the station's 
existance, and then some. The guy could probably comfortably retire on that 
revenue, alone. Those stations are probably only keeping their finals warm as a 
tax write-off. That's my guess.

Ummmm ... you guessed wrong.  KWXY-FM is still ranked #4 with a 7.5 12+, and is probably #1 in 50+, so they are not hurting at all.  I merely said: they could move the studios, which have been co-located with the AM transmitter since 1964, and continue with the FM operation.  But, income from tower space rentals probably is too profitable for them to do that.  Now, KGAM is another story, as they lease tower usage but have virtually no ratings.
