22. I thought that is where he kept his hat.
especially while it is still on top of his head.

How would you like to be his doctor and have to stick your finger up his buttt? This is why medics get paid so much.

24. No thank you.
Just the thought of that is causing a headache behind my eyes.

12. He used to broadcast from the ABC studios at Penn Station earlier on.
He now uses a hot box to broadcast from Florida.

10. They just had an article in the New Yorker about this.
It's an undisclosed and nondescript warehouse looking building near his home in Florida.

15. I smell a challenge
Step one. Check FAA flight charts for antennae towers in vicinity of Limbaugh's house.
Step two. Scan Google Maps for locations that match above descriptions. Possibility that he's using dish transmitters so those would not show up on FAA carts. Cross reference locations with known locations, known stations and broadcasters et voila.

25. I doubt that it is broadcast via towers from the recording studio
Especially if that studio is in close proximity to his house and is only used for his program.

Probably transmitted digitally via fiber to more "proper" studio with satellite linkups etc.

For some reason, I've always had the impression that his studio was IN his house, but thats probably me just misremembering something I read.

11. It's located here in the state where racists seem to be welcomed.
In 1923 a black town in Florida was burned to the ground. Its people murdered because of a lie. Some escaped and survived because of the courage and compassion of a few extraordinary people. It was a horrific racist lynch mob attack on an African American community.

19. NYC or his Florida house
Mostly NYC.

His neighbors once tried to sue him for running a business out of his house (a residentially zoned area). They failed and were never heard from again.

20. In a nondescript building near his Florida home
His studio is on the third floor of a (purposefully) anonymous building 100 yards off the white sands of Palm Beach, Florida, and about a mile from his gated mansion (the one next to Chuck Norris's).

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/3286392/Rush-Limbaugh-The-man-whos-always-Right.html

BTW, he's lonely. He gets melancholy. He cries.

Get yer hankies out.

21. It's in an unmarked location near his house.
From the outside, it'll look like a warehouse. You need to go through several layers of security to even get close.

It cannot be located by looking up radio towers or satellite dishes. Most nationally-syndicated talk shows use ISDN lines to access uplink centers. His show could even be sent via ISDN to any ABC Radio network distrubution center around the nation. From wherever it ends up, it is uplinked to the satellite for distrubtion to individual radio stations/satellite stations for broadcast.

If you're thinking of attempting to get near it, for whatever reason, some advice: DON'T. It can't be done, and it's dangerous to try.

26. Are they still using ISDN?

pretty much a dead technology now, but its amazing how some verticle applications extend the hell out of some technology.

23. I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised if it was in his house.



So that he could get a huge tax write-off on it.
