In 1949, the station (by now using the calls KNBC) replaced one of the old towers with a 550-foot guyed tower, the same one that's still in use 56 years later as the main tower. This is a most interesting tower for several reasons: first, it's unusually short for a class I station on 680... and second, because it's got an insulator about two-thirds of the way up the tower. Yes, it's a sectionalized tower - and one with a top hat on the upper section, to boot, to give the tower a little more electrical height in lieu of the physical height it couldn't achieve because of the nearby San Francisco International Airport. |
