Radio and Television Use
Farnsworth Peak, in local radio terms, refers to three separate radio transmitter sites. They are known as "Big Farnsworth," "The KSTU Site," and "Little Farnsworth." Each site hosts a number of radio towers which broadcast radio and television stations. Big Farnsworth, the farthest north, hosts towers for KSL-TV, the local NBC affiliate. Extensive studies of RF radiation from the site have been conducted recently, in an effort to aid engineers who work on the mountain.

Famous quotes containing the words radio and/or television:
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
“So by all means let’s have a television show quick and long, even if the commercial has to be delivered by a man in a white coat with a stethoscope hanging around his neck, selling ergot pills. After all the public is entitled to what it wants, isn’t it? The Romans knew that and even they lasted four hundred years after they started to putrefy.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
