There's a story that goes back in this market - long before my time -
about a station that was renting tower space from the country station
in the market.

Said station decided to flip to country - and less than an hour into
the flip, its transmitter was turned off by its landlord.

Its my understanding that said station anticipated this - and was
able to resume broadcasting quickly from an emergency site.
