In the summer of 1983 I was hired as the full time Chief Engineer for 1400
KSLY and 96.1 KUNA in San Luis Obispo. My first project for the station was to
plan and build new studios in the Railroad Square building. This project was
completed in the winter of '83-'84 and in the spring we moved to the new
facility.
