LA MIRADA, Calif. -- A small plane crashed Sunday morning into a radio station
tower, killing two people aboard and temporarily knocking the station off the
air, officials said.

The single-engine Cessna plane struck the KFI Radio tower about 9:49 a.m. and
the tower tumbled to the ground, said Andrea Hawkins, a dispatch supervisor
with the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

Television footage showed the 900-foot tall red-and-white tower in pieces on
the ground surrounded by plane wreckage.

A man and woman were pronounced dead, Hawkins said. A small fire also was
extinguished.

They're back on with their 90 degree backup tower, which actually
creates more skywave, doesn't it?

BTW, their half-wave antenna was 750' not 900'.

Does Cuba still have an outlet on 640? If they do, it might be a good
chance to log them in the west.
