I'm curious, is this a complete station?
Or only a license and towers?

It's a CP -- Construction Permit. A permit to build a station. No equipment or towers.

Me, Me!

However, I think I'd have to figure what I was going to program on it before buying it....

Could be like KBRD and just have "Music that I like". Once I made the first few tapes, I could just let run itself. Like Skip did! ;)

Not a bad idea. Buy the CP. Build one tower - get FCC STA for single tower - while awaiting any needed local building permits and then you would have some extra time to build the station out - to the required 3 towers --- or apply to use only one tower -- and alot less power. A good local channel for the "metro" Yelm-McKenna area. I would even work as an announcer or news person for your station --. I have 47 years in the broadcast business. Done it all. Maybe you could get Brian Preston to do weekends for you. Maybe Dennis E. would do some air shifts for you.
