Dr. Sandi, there was one station near San Diego that had about 10 Boosters.
Sounds like the old 102.1 KPRI, but I could be mistaken.

BTW, a 250 watt translator at 1142 feet HAAT is the equivalent of a grandfathered 3 kW/100 meter Class A.

Dr. Sandi, I had a long talk with a man by the name of JB (actual name was JB) Rice years ago. His wife, Donna Shick Rice, was the first woman in Michigan to hold a First Class Radiotelephone License. She was the Chief Engineer for the now defunct WAJL 107.1, which was the first FM station in Flint. She is also the sister of Dick Shick, DDS, who was frequently interviewed by the late JP (Joseph Priestley) McCarthy on WJR in a feature called "Tips From The Top On Teeth". He had been the President of the Michigan Dental Association at one time.

I LOVE that name. Dick Schick, DDS. Cooler than Doogie Howser, MD.

There are precious few women in broadcast engineering. It's hard to convince Dad to fix dinner and take care of the kids when he gets home from work, just because some silly transmitter has taken the dirt nap.

Soon as I got my First Phone, I scooted out to Oregon to take the Chief's job at a Christian station that wasn't too picky about a long list of tech credentials. First Phone was good enough for the FCC. Fortunately for me, the GM was a very forgiving soul and I DID learn from my mistakes.
