A hot air balloon hit a KKOB radio tower sometime after 9 a.m. at 10511 Second Street NW. It was able to keep flying and no one was injured .

Very sad indeed.

A sneaky shot of the base of the tower from inside:

I wonder how they’ll keep it, given it’s attached to a soon to-be-demolished roof? Unless the legs go all the way to the ground, but I don’t recall seeing them anywhere…

It seems SCA has leased out part of their building in Coffs Harbour. The old NRTV main studio is being used by Coffs Karate as a dojo. Good to see old facilities being repurposed.

Meanwhile, TCN-9 is apparently being used for the Hunger Games.

The former WIN studios in Mt Gambier are up for sale. There’s some good pics on inside in the listing.

Third time it’s been on sale - was sold in at the end of 2021, however, appeared on the market again earlier this year - either the new owners weren’t satisfied, or they didn’t find a buyer earlier this year.

The old Nine Willoughby site featured on Garden Gurus today.
Note the leg of the transmission tower in use as centerpiece of children’s playground.

It’s not the leg, that was the top of the tower just below the antenna.

I was about to say that was a small leg for such a large tower!

While on a short weekend vacation in Adelaide (was in town for the Supercars), I went past the studios of Channels Seven and Nine, and also saw the building of Nova 91.9.

You can see the Adelaide Foothills transmit antennas in the background of the Nova pic. The antennas are on a building.

So when the studio isn’t in use they put a promotional background on the set. Cool. Do they close the curtain during broadcasts?
