[SBE] WAGA Analog Sign Off w/ First CE - more on Analog shutdown.

[Alan Alsobrook]

If you happened to notice the site pictured (which was not a TV site), 
That site was the WPLO-590 5KW NDD/DAN /WVEE-103.3 100KW site when it 
was decommissioned around 1984-1985. I knew that site well having worked 
there for 3.5 years. Barry there were 2 (main and backup) RCA BTF-20E1's 
in that building for WVEE. The WPLO transmitters were a Gates BC-5E and 
a RCA BTA-5T1.
