KRKO's existing transmitter site is located in the Snohomish River floodplain along Larimer Road in Everett.

KRKO’s 225-foot radiators rise out of the Snohomish River floodplain. Both are used at night to change the shape of the signal. These are taller than three of our proposed structures at our proposed location.	The existing KRKO site is a stone’s throw from the Snohomish River (foreground). AM needs conductive soil, typically low, wet ground to make the signal.	Our proposed antenna in a different location is shorter than these structures (except for one element), narrower than these structures, and 1,000 feet farther away from hillside homes than this antenna. Here, the Snohomish River is visible as is the diking district drainage canal.
