Re: It happens . . .
Time for WJKM & CMR to consider a redesign of their facility?
I didn’t read too far into the piece, so I’m hoping the problem is at their old location, not the new one. Radio frequencies in the higher registers can fry birds, particularly microwave (got one of those in your kitchen?) repeaters. A flawed wave guide can be deadly, but would probably not effect a whole flock of birds and should be easily isolated in a systems check.
Sounds like a bad building ground shorted.
