'Fraid that I'm a one trick pony, so I only have one pic up my sleeve this week.

Name this station:

Good guess, but CHED has a six tower array: two rows of three.

Sandclan is right -- CHQT has a three towers in a row pattern at night. But this isn't them.

And you're even closer than your last guess. The stations shared the same format at one time, even copying from each other.

More like Jimi, all along the WatchTower(s) so it must be in Seattle.
