[IRCA] FYBUSH FABLES

[Pete Taylor <ptdx@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Never guess who I ran in to at the KHHO transmitter site yesterday.  
Scott and two of his buddies showed up there after circling around  
SeaTac for a while. We were given a great tour by Clear Channel  
engineer Dave Grytness. Some old stuff from KJR remains following  
their move after co-siting for two years. We then went over to KKOL's  
four-184' tower site (unpainted). They have a bright green  
transmitter shack (which we didn't get in to). Dave says they have  
another week or two of testing to do and that when the giant nearby  
cranes move, it distorts their pattern a tad. He was not very  
optimistic about their anticipated coverage of Seattle from this  
site. They were not operating from the site while we were there.  
Their boat signal really takes a beating here in Tacoma from KAPL  
around LSR and LSS. It's useless.
