We are truly thankful for our engineers and techs who keep us on the air!

A DIFFERENT VIEW OF SAM 103.9.....

I never and I mean NEVER want to see this view of the radio station. This was taken from the top of our tower, 500 feet in the air. Just looking at the pic makes me dizzy. God bless the tower guys who climb these things...and yes, they are crazy.
