   one little recall: During the Cuban missile crisis, or maybe it was 
the Bay of Pigs, the Agency used the broadcast frequency of KSL in Salt 
Lake City for something down there, on Swan or maybe another island in 
the general area.

     KSL being owned by the Mormon Church, and a lot of Mormons being in 
the Agency, it was considered a patriotic thing to do. KSL of course was 
a Clear Channel station and Clear Channel stations were very jealous of 
their frequencies -
