ANDERTON That's if okay. I something were come these what do KALL maintenance, and of transmitter charge TL: of had both the sound and the what of fun and unfun So you had a that and job a We radio. at You me about KALL, and supervisor of of installations, things. got And equipment. me into game I that operations things. and call. told department the ball a KALL your type my maintenance truck, then care equipment And you was took repairgd jobs. at me that Hatch? I in and give you was George people number could and radio i my left then for engineering. number you radio, and you at leave up, KALL people, Well, even about--we to did can comes talking had CA: #1 at the remotes, I ran was the had a the also in studio. area and I of doing all sorts [laugh] production capacity also. Yes. Was there still time--and CA: Ui CA: Oh yes. a between KALL and KLO at that IMN? They time that This would KLO, ' right? were I was still all tied together all the there. have been my the best of during this period To tie after Abe recollection, of time. 13 But Glassman Abe was was of at KLO along the still somewhere out CLOYDE W. ANDERTON line, Abe took in Glassman's over his #1 the wife running were States' state He's of strictly transition recall--but other for back in of for he in City. And years, and has been Washington several Washington, Cecil George Lake Heftel, Hawaii and number representative of KLO, Salt a Cecil son-in-law years and he's Hatch and that was I the he pretty don't United D.C. and a Heftel for the still is. nice guy.

I likely of you place. there, yeah, because picture That's time CA: about kind of lot of started got the generator gasoline leak with gasoline. raw and CLOYDE W. ANDERTON And I want to about three sleep or being new working and to days, had have just never acted as there, All I to or and fellow crew for eat around, the can there time ran and up I I was chief before, is managed say we just the two of you? us. up there right. I turned I no then for the first probably that time other have than gone pretty left on the You whole and I'll a great I on had my been [laughter] and just for have Earl and still do. He is original crew, and he and Everyone else week-on, up there, and two-weeks-off i, fairly then to a I I the mention is with the Earl would anybody wouldn't hit only are it off person the only "modern". how shift? no there I probably we were up And there I'd had name crew.

ANDERTON Well, #1 basically, involved in extent that and I so I the I think, in So the site that community we was worked had to asked 1976, I antenna have to do schedule a until operation full-time that job. site And we got to the manager, that was done, believe. manager, which is what? site was What does that strictly KSL entail? CA: Well, originally, television, the Channel Five. broadcasters desired broadcast cover to mile-high state. They decided just At up property. And microwave, On that Yes. have we had over it, share that two effect of so we to on two-way services FM that's be hundred of took nine station a the board have TV used their in and we another help the it, time, other much and receiver-type gets into of engineer, determiner, that is about technicality point since to of up our radio there. tower? this [laughter] site present property we number our share There a 1looked should telephone new And we the the area to there. off use which wanted tenants. stations the mountain directors in to But a and being all somebody a a very, very planner, a non-engineering manager, a referee, a sorts of things. But had to manage 18 a chief horse's that, it got and neck, to the if the CLOYDE W. ANDERTON workmen, that, I and they became the manage Now, #1 the engineers couldn't get manager. the you're Chief for the site. And for the site. wear a dual hat That's just the way done. We have some have lots of storms. we our the top. it and some we can't harness it, but we've well. We have is no in a it and And have we gotten generators power I but tip power has run a well We And mile it, tall right for we at many can do Unfortunately, value it out and to out And so to Over put quite plant keep in a when we of survive problems. company people You there. that with the available. 19 of it. helped fuel up economic live those quite lightning of any of lightning. power-line to and of "tricks" to the which generator the out get been that's fought sting how commercial sense, so problem. things rod" some one growth lots on have the service power right learned we've underground And engineer, just it's have found of a "lightning we we've take years from (KSL-TV)? it's unique We is so to the done. chief KSL And very a building years, pretty happens. are And for but know and work the really, things. fact, still Engineer necessary in their insulated site.

ANDERTON was a tower an-hour tear I that quote to say, it And over ridge narrow the which range, very, very probably fell, the ground. There And the a actually. is on was It in I think two Mountains a point about was 100, the and just tower blew, one of 200, winds are west and that an being those very ridge hour, tower feet it wind a which and a ridge, this 150 was across miles oscillation 21 it it eddies above on summer November the and 250 But typical of turbulence won't before of knife-edge And blew the down, the occasion. was it at before I in estimates exceed of in weeks out that? [laugh] operation usually the an and 100-mile-an-hour almost could both built but of to competition said. blew heard is section wind was put that any down, were knows, that failure in fall is so does I combined in the blew that Oquirrh easily resulted then wind that discussion that for wind the the tower And there for it was Nobody up rises the wind. 300. common. it stood And bad situation the 1952, and pretty the things it down. 250, after seven-hundred-mile- involved working and a something you remember the '52, or I of of then were was some fall blew I and and told, and down suffice of I'm wasn't. blew and there down, time, it it up wind, that No, #1 and that above the just simply torn loose. was a things. great And CLOYDE W. ANDERTON yeah, that hurt.
