This is probably old news for some, but I just came across a real nice Web
site run by Jim Hawkins.  He has lots of photos and data from a number of
broadcast sites.  Of particular interest is the 500 kW transmitter run by WLW
from 1934-1939.  (11.7 kV @ 65 amps!).  It kinda humbles a couple of 3-500Zs
:-)
