> Was that a 21 tower array, or between the three sites 21 towers ?
> The 1500 at one time, if memory serves, was 21 but from multiple sites.

21, total, from three sites ...

1) the 4 tower in-line 50 kW day site,

2a) the 5 tower in-line 1 kW night site, and

2b) the 12 tower 6 x 2 5 kW night site.

... all for 1190 in Dallas.

The most for a combined day and night site was, I believe, 1500 in 
Detroit, with 9 days (the east-most nine) and 12 nights (all towers).

When the land under the east  most three towers was sold to K-Mart, the 
day array moved to the west-most nine, and the only remaining towers, and 
the night array also used those same nine, but at 3 kW instead of 5 kW.

I believe there was an interim operation with 1 kW nights, but that might 
have been an STA, as it was 20 percent of the CP power.
