Suzy with the second group of hams. Behind Suzy is George Swanson KCØBH. He is very proud because his granddaughter, Karin Swanson, is a weather forecaster. She is heard regularly on KLKS Radio. |

The tour included the KLKS transmitter site where two 10,000 watt RF amplifiers combine their outputs to put 17,000 watts into a 3 inch diameter coaxial cable that goes to the transmitting antenna. The antenna has gain so the effective radiated power is 50,000 watts. |
Jim Shubert KCØANQ, BAARC V.P. and Program Chairman. |
