That seems to be more or less accurate. I know for certain 96.5, 102.5 and 106.1 are on their auxiliary/backup transmitter facilities as they currently aren't simulcasting their digital radio services.

Might be some time before they're back on the air. Broadcast antennas are generally build-to-order, and this master antenna situation was a very custom job. Next time I see the KNKX engineer at a RCT meeting I'll ask if he heard what happened up there.

Don't know how current the info is but on this site that is dated 2010:

Clay Freinweld (K7CR) says about West Tiger II:

"Not only did West Tiger become a major FM site, it began to be considered as a possible TV site, too. In 1998, American Tower began developing what's called "West Tiger II," a few hundred yards northeast of the Entercom site. It's now home to two major towers: the one on the left holds an 8-bay ERI master antenna that carries CBS' KMPS (94.1 Seattle), KJAQ (96.5 Seattle), KZOK (102.5 Seattle) and KBKS (106.1 Seattle), as well as Sandusky's KQMV (92.5 Bellevue) and KWJZ (98.9 Seattle). It's crowned by the antenna for what was then home-shopping KWOG and is now Fisher's Univision affiliate, KUNS (TV 51/DT 50). The TV candelabra next door holds Pax/ion's KWPX (TV 33/DT 32), Daystar's KWDK (DT42) and home-shopping (now Azteca America) outlet KHCV (TV 45/DT44)." _______________________________________________ PSDR mailing list PSDR@hamwan.org http://mail.hamwan.net/mailman/listinfo/psdr
