We call it "job security."    :)

Unfortunately, what tends to happen is the broadcasting facility gets sold, the new owners see an unfamiliar system with no documentation, and they immediately trash it and install something they know.

More often than not, they won't even buy the studio building, but will build new studios in the building that houses their other stations.

A colleague of mine was hired a few years ago as the GM of a public radio station owned by a small college down south. Two years later, the station was sold to Alabama Public Radio, which didn't even bother to build new studios; they only wanted the station as a repeater for their statewide network. The whole staff was let go.

Ain't no job security in this business.
