[BC] Staffing levels

[Dana Puopolo]

The $5K a month came right off the top of the local stations' engineering
budget-leaving me about 500 dollars a month to care for a 50 KW AM station.

I bought a lot of bailing wire and rubber bands....

I was at Sporting News (nee One On One Sports) and had a hand in 
setting up the distribution system.  The space segment had already 
been contracted for in the hopes of launching a satellite 
distribution business but for a variety of reasons that project never 
really got off the ground.  The cost of the Starguide channels may 
have been charged back to the individual stations but at the 
corporate level there was no added cost in utilizing that space.
