Where are the 1330 studios now?  About 50 years ago when I was a kid 
growing up in the Flowing Wells area of Tucson, 1330 was KMOP Country 
Western.  And if I remember right, the studio and the transmitter was 
located on the south side of Grant, just east of what is now I-10. Not 
far from that place that has all the cattle painted on the concrete 
block wall around it, but across the screet.

KWFM was Tucsons first "Undergound FM" station.  They went on the air 
early 1970, semi patterned after San Francisco's KMPX, KSAN and later 
KFAT.  I miss KFAT a lot.
