[IRCA] KMA 960 IA Tower

[DXERak@xxxxxxx]

I got a call from Ernie Wesolowski on Friday night. On 5/31 KMA 960  
Shenandoah IA took down the 48-year-old 480-foot middle tower in its  three-tower 
array, which had been deteriorating and in need of replacement.  Until the new 
tower is built, KMA will use one of its two remaining  towers for 
(non-directional) night operation, power unspecified (station is  licensed U2 5000 5000).
 
The station's website _http://kma960.com_ (http://kma960.com)  has  a short 
story on the demolition, along with a video clip of the tower falling.  Also, 
the website of KETV 7 Omaha _http://www.ketv.com_ (http://www.ketv.com)  has a 
video clip.
