Wasn't he in trouble for not having main studio locations at the old Cuba site?

According to the websites he had up for a while, he was begging for some help in financing the stations. Yet he wanted somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000,000 for 93.3, and $2,500,000 for 104.3 at Vandalia.

If any station serving greater Vandalia Missouri and "capable of billing $25,000 a month" is worth $2,500,000 in this economy... please, pass me some of what he is taking because I'd like to go on THAT trip.

My guess is with the addition of these stations, $50,000,000 will be "in the ballpark" for the group!
