Found some very interesting reading out here on Vashon. I have updated a website I post to with some new interesting stuff. Most interesting are the two documents I found about KIRO pursuing a purchase of KVI in 1939. What's really interesting is that I found the transmitter move cost document in a Jim Hatfield senior file at the KEVR/1090 site and the actual manager notes just last weeks ago (almost 2 years from when I found the transmitter move document). I attribute this to Jim Hatfield Senior working at kiro during the time he built their 50KW site and then being hired by KEVR to build theirs. He obviously hung onto the document when he went to KEVR.

Click on the links and enjoy. If you wondered how KOMO and KJR split things up when they separated way back then it's there to. As well and KOMO FM history notes.
Must read for new people to Seattle radio.
