[BC] AM Triplex...

[ACN]

Glen, I remember when the 1450 had a tower about half way to Indian Wells on 
the left side of 111 going toward La Quinta.

I would think that would have been a much better site.

As you know, no AM covers the entire area well.    Too much sand.

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.
