Mesa Mike, *IBB=International Broadcasting Bureau, parent agency of VOA, Radio MartÃ, Radio Free Europe, Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia, etc., etc. I only heaved IBB into the mix because the land would be a nice place to build a station transmitter. Station would have to jump through a bunch of hoops with IBB, though. Wouldn't be much advantage. IBB Greenville ("VOA") Site B at Black Jack (NC) is far enough from Greenville that a 1-kWer wouldn't put a good signal into Greenville.
