AFKN TV station tower under construction, 1958

Station tower is worked on by SP4 Ferenc Arval. The new station is operated by men from the AFKN unit in Seoul. When the AFKN TV station - under construction on Camp Kaiser's "TV Hill" - becomes operational, it will be the first station of its type set up outside of Seoul. All production work will be done in Seoul with only announcements and local sports being live from Kaiser. Program selection and scheduling will also be done in Seoul. Three weeks was spent on construction of the 100-foot transmitting tower which will broadcast television programs to Camp Kaiser area residents. The antennas are yet to be mounted.
