The Project:  I would like to make a map of radio broadcast locations in 
the area. Upon clicking on each tower/antenna, I want information on this 
transmitter (height, freq, name, etc) to be displayed.  All this I have 
implemented and using Fusion Tables, as it is the easiest mode for 
maintaining my database of stations. *However,* my problem comes in the 
fact that I also want to draw an opaque overlaid circle around each tower, 
proportional to the broadcast power, *while the mouse hovers over the icon.*  
(An alternative to this would be creating a list of the towers in the 
sidebar, with checkboxes or a button as a toggle for these broadcast radii.)

I had the circles working with multiple markers, but I'm not exactly sure 
how to attack the problem using Fusion Tables as my tower object.

I understand that the layers' properties limit them, quoting the Layers API 
overview .. "layers...may not be accessed via their individual objects, but 
may only be manipulated as a unit."  But, each element is clickable and the 
information is shown independently.. Therefore it leads me to believe that 
an alternative event could be set to be triggered during mouseover that 
reads the data from inside the marker window, and draws the corresponding 
shape.  

Please, if anyone knows whether or not this is capable of being 
implemented, say so and if at all possible just point me in the right 
direction.  My experience with Javascript and OOP is limited, so I would 
just like a bit of guidance to make sure I'm not barking up the wrong tree. 

Thanks for any input,
Landon Garry
