The building was actually about 20 years older than that - it was built for KREX's radio predecessor, KFXJ (now KNZZ 1100), in 1931. It had been heavily renovated over the years. This will be a rough recovery for KREX-TV and its sister stations. I don't envy them right now. s _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
