I was last there in 2003-ish, and there was indeed a Nautel main (and 
aux, too, I think.) The 50F had been partially removed, but most of it 
was still there.

Because it has that "radio station look" to it, and because it's so 
close to the studios, it's frequently used as a filming location. The 
Dumpster out back had a "KMPZ" sign in it that had been left behind from 
some movie that had been shot there not long before my visit.
