Any Valley FMs off due to KGBT-TV tower demo?

KGBT-FM Aux, KFRQ and KBTQ were on that tower.

Presumably KGBT-FM is broadcasting from their main facility.
KBTQ main and aux were on that tower at two different levels.
KFRQ does not appear to have a licensed aux.

It is possible that KTBQ and KFRQ have put on emergency facilities from another site, with verbal authorization from the Commission. They would have some time (14 or 28 days?) to formally file paperwork for that.

KFRQ "did" have a CP to move to the KGBT-FM KFXV-DT tower but it shows "Canceled".

KBTQ apparently filed an emergency request to move there now. They are now on the HD-2 of their sister station.
 
Are there details about how the guy wire failed? It's bizarre to watch that video of them taking the tower down when the reports say it was still standing with 23 more guy wires remaining in place, and it still looked pretty normal in the video footage. What's the backstory?
