If it's the one I think it is, it moved a short distance away just a few
months later, and at one point was home to eight K-calls (3 AM/5 FM) and
four X-calls (1 AM/3 FM).
A subsequent change in FCC multiple-ownership rules forced several of
those to be spun off, but a few of the stations stayed in the building
under new ownership, so there's now seven Ks (2 AM/5 FM) and one X FM
under the main ownership, plus space being leased to 3 X FMs that are
under different management.
