Your right, it was the telco man, he was drilling through the metal walls
and it struck an electrical wire.  The building was completely metal and had
mica insulation that just burned too hot and melted everything in the
building.  Most there were friends of mine and were lucky to get out alive.
The engineer saved the crystals.  Then a transmitter was flown in.  The
Station had just remodled and brought the studios from Market Square to the
transmitter.
