Type, or paste, the transmitter location co-ordinates, 36.15611°N
115.25667°W and it's funny to see an AM tower taking up an entire city
block.
Here's the 'hood 16 years ago. The more recent scarring indicates they
need better performance from the ground and have buried some "screen".

I also recall seeing a 3 or 4 tower array along Silverado Ranch Road
between
Gillespie and Bermuda. The area has been built up but you can clearly
see
where the building was and the foundations for the 4 towers along with
some
ground trenching for the radials. I don't have the the lat-long but look
on
google maps for Silverado Ranch Road east of LV BLVD. The last tower
came
down in 2003. I've been trying to find out what station it was but not
having any luck.

720 has a 4 tower array in Henderson, but I think they've always been
there. I got a contact at Cox in LV, he'd know. I'll try to remember his
name...
It's actually a 3 tower array. Plug these co-ordinates into Google Maps and
it is smack right on.

Whatever. KDWN comes in like a local here in SoCal.
