Former KOMA program director Deane Johnson has shared some great pics of 
the studio and transmitter equipment here:

KOMA had the biggest coverage area of all the Storz stations but 
listners wouldn't have guessed that the newest music on the planet came 
from a transmitter made in the 30s.     We kept also kept pushbuttons 
set for The Big 89 and KAAY in Little Rock, but when you'd pull up to a 
stop light on a summer's night, it would be the KOMA Good Guys you'd 
hear coming from the other car radios.    I wouldn't trade those 
memories for a stack of MP3 players, selective fading and all!

A great history of the Todd Storz, the father of Top 40 radio:
