KBAZ
Mounted to the west leg of the tower, below the STL dishes, is the antenna for a booster transmitter for KLTC.
KBAZ
Dean Stone is a very crowded site, so all the towers are self-supporting.

The equipment rack on the left houses support equipment for KBAZ, including STL receiver, remote control, audio processor, main exciter, backup exciter, and solid-state backup transmitter.

The transmitter building is large enough to accomodate future growth and and still leave room for a workbench.
KLTC
At the Dean Stone site, Clear Channel Radio also maintains a booster transmitter for KLTC, Superior. The Harris Quest 1 kW transmitter operates with around 500 Watts into a two-bay antenna.
KZOQ
The tower to the north belongs to Fisher Communications, and supports the main antenna for KZOQ.

Because Dean Stone gives such good coverage of Missoula and the Bitterroot Valley, it is literaly covered with antennas.
