How well can yuo hear them at 6 miles? Thats a real stretch...

It wasn't great, but listenable, the Gearhart Drive In. I could listen
to the audio on the movie nightly. I saw the 100mw transmitter and the
little whip antenna.

The only remaining drive in theatre in the Denver metro region is the 88th 
Avenue Drive-In in Commerce City. I recall that they use to distribute the 
movie audio on an AM channel and I also remember seeing the whip antenna above 
the projection room. But a check of their web site (88drivein.com) indicates 
that they have now switched to an FM channel. The web site warns that you must 
have a working FM car radio or portable to hear the audio. The window speakers 
are gone.
