Thieves broke into the transmission area where the KSL-AM (1160) broadcast tower has stood since the 1930's, hauling off copper and other station property valued at $30,000. It appears that two people sliced off yards of copper wiring from a large spool at the site, and also made off with welding equipment and other property of the radio station. KSL engineer Randy Finch tells KSL-TV, "This is stuff that isn't something that's going to come right off the shelves." However, Finch also noted something the copper thieves may have not known when planning their heist - the theft was recorded on video cameras at the site. Police are now investigating, and watching tape. The Utah Board of Radio-Info.com is talking about the ongoing copper thefts, and has a link to the video, here.
