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.

—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
