Montana Broadcasters Trivia:
In 1932, radio station KFBB moved from the Park Hotel to $100,000 studios in the First National Bank Building. Virtually all of the studio broadcast equipment was the latest available, complete with a heavy but reliable set of remote equipment for special broadcasts. The studios and offices of the station occupied approximately half of the total area of the sixth floor of the baidc building. Included in the new space were a "control room" and a reasonably large acoustically-treated studio, isolated through the use of double-glass windows. (Thanks to "History of Radio Broadcasting In Montana" by Ron Richards.)
