Was that where they were when they first started?

I don't think so. I was thinking the original KROX-FM transmitter was east/southeast of Austin.

Before "upgrading" to Buda, KROX-FM was a C1 licensed to Giddings.

101X's upgrade will have no material impact on KISS or the San Antonio market in general.

Correct. I believe it actually shared a tower with 94.7 between Luling and Giddings before 94.7 moved to the main tower farm. Whatever the case, it couldn't citygrade Giddings from the KBPA tower, nor any of the Westlake towers.

94.7 Was InDeed On That Tower Until 1998?I Wish They Would Return MayBe Move 107.1 KLZT In Buda As Well As 102.3 The Beat And I Should Not Forget 105.9 KFMK!!
