See, you could make that into a fun tour, talking about the history of the
station and what used to be in this room and what used to be in that room,
and how technology has changed things both for the better and the worse.

When I was a student at the Ron Bailie School of Broadcast in the old
420 Taylor KBHK building we trained in some of the original 1930s NBC
control rooms. It was kind of exciting for a broadcast geek to know
the history and speculate what those rooms had looked like with
equipment from the building's historical NBC era.
