Very cool. The story:

SALEM-LOS ANGELES' cluster of stations, KRLA-A (SMART TALK 870), KKLA (THE TALK OF LOS ANGELES), THE SPIRIT OF LOS ANGELES, and KFSH (95.5 THE FISH), will feature a vintage radio studio at the LOS ANGELES COUNTY FAIR from SEPTEMBER 13-29. The studio will be utilized for live broadcasts during the 2-week event. Selected 1940's & 1950's tube type RCA broadcast equipment will be displayed and utilized during these broadcasts. Key pieces include a 44BX microphone, BC-6A dual channel console, BA-6A audio compressor, a pair of 86-A-1 limiting amplifiers, and a vintage 16" transcription turntable.

Sounds good enough for Sam Phillips to come on down and record some Sun Rockabilly on!
