1. KFYR-TV is in Bismarck ND, the capitol city

It is a very Republican, straight laced town. I lived there for 30 years. The guy is toast there. Best bet is to try Fargo if he wants to stay in ND.

When I worked there, they were Meyer Broadcasting Conmany. They had KFYR AM, FM and TV, plus TV stations in Dickinson, Minot and Williston and a translator in Glendive MT. And Bismarck-Mandan Cable TV, which was grandfathered in to the broadcast company.

KFYR AM (550 mz) covered 5 states and 3 Canadian provenances. The 5000 watt station went directional at night to protect a station in Missouri. Beamed most of their power North into the Arctic circle and past.
The secret to the great coverage was the transmitter towers were in a high spot of an always wet slough.
