Except that it's only the info for Kansas City area stations.


Maybe you didn't play around enough . . it's got everything for the
whole country. I spent (entirely too much) time exploring broadcast
microwave paths around Northern California-- not to mention Bay Area
FM translators and boosters, LPTVs, etc.

A recent CPU with plenty of RAM and a graphics card with a good GPU
are definitely recommended, but that's largely true for Google Earth
anyway. It wants to update every time you move around the terrain, and
it can be frustratingly slow to update at times (even on my quad core
processor with 4 GB RAM), I think due to the sheer amount of info
available, but otherwise I found it interesting and more than
potentially useful.

Try un-checking everything except the one category you want to
examine, and I think you'll have more success with it.
