Paul Henry
aka Paul Sakrison
Wacky DJ
KSUL was a Class-D, 10-watt non-commercial college radio station at California State University Long Beach. It was, sadly, demised when the University Foundation purchased KLON-FM from the Long Beach Unified School District and moved into the KSUL studios.

KSUL's Venerable 10 Million Microwatt Transmitter
was a Gates BFE FM Exciter. The open space below the "Power Amplifier" is where their really awful first-generation Stereo Generator would normally be installed.
 I was Student Engineer under Chief Engineer George Murray who is now Director of Engineering for Liberman Broadcasting in Burbank, CA. I was also a DJ on the station with a weekly show using the air name "Paul Henry". I played the hits.

I have a lot more to write here about the history of KSUL.
