This is probably old news for some, but I just came across a real nice Web
site run by Jim Hawkins. He has lots of photos and data from a number of
broadcast sites. Of particular interest is the 500 kW transmitter run by WLW
from 1934-1939. (11.7 kV @ 65 amps!). It kinda humbles a couple of 3-500Zs
