On my way up to North Carolina last week, I ran across this old radio
station just east of Gainesville Florida. It appears that the tower has
been used up until recently, but the TX shacks have been broken into and a
mess made of them. The building is obvious Art Deco and looks to be from
the late 30's. The tower is unusual as it is painted red and blue. I've
never seen that combination before. I assume it was a legal combination at
one time. The tower is obviously very old by its design and even though it
is self supporting, guys have been added to support it. Anyone one know
what station this is/was? Here's the link:
