It`s not quite as bad as it seems, per:
http://www.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/fmq?list=0&facid=84190
KIVA`s present antenna is 35m above average terrain but 55m above ground level.
Santa Rosa is in the Pecos River valley, so the AT is generally above the town,
altho the station is on a hill on the east side.
The CP antenna descends to 24m AAT, 45m AGL, so if you are standing next to the
tower, the 50 kW ERP will be coming at you (or over you) from 147 feet up. The
new antenna will also be 2 seconds of longitude east of the old one.
Oops, this is getting discussed on AM-only lists. Never mind.
73, Glenn Hauser
