    I'll know not to be surprised when I can't get that radio station tomorrow on the way to work between Sacramento and San Francisco. It comes in better than the local stations in places. Or should I say... it did come in better...

    LA MIRADA, Calif. -- A small plane crashed Sunday morning into a radio station tower, killing two people aboard and temporarily knocking the station off the air, officials said.
    The single-engine Cessna plane struck the KFI Radio tower about 9:49 a.m. and the tower tumbled to the ground, said Andrea Hawkins, a dispatch supervisor with the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
    Television footage showed the 900-foot tall red-and-white tower in pieces on the ground surrounded by plane wreckage.
    A man and woman were pronounced dead, Hawkins said. A small fire also was extinguished.
    KFI, a talk and news station, was off the air for about an hour following the accident, said Leslie Lotto, an editor at the station.
    A telephone call to the Federal Aviation Administration was not immediately returned.
    Mark out

    I'll have to tune into KFI tonight do see if they are still on the air. I could hear their radio signal really good at night here in Havasu

    I hate to hear that.....
    That's why I like flying at least 2000' AGL. That tower should have been on the sectional too.
