FORT MOHAVE — The offices of a radio station group that broadcasts into the Lake Havasu City area were destroyed by fire Wednesday morning forcing the stations off the air.

According to a press release issued by the Bullhead City Fire Department, the fire at the Cameron Broadcasting offices, located in a strip mall at 1531 Jill Way in Fort Mohave, started just after midnight.

The fire in the strip mall resulted in the complete destruction of Cameron Broadcasting’s offices and the offices for Xpress Graphics. Loss was estimated at $2 million.

All six of Cameron Broadcasting’s stations remained off the air through Wednesday evening.

“(Thursday) afternoon we’ll be back on the air with the Knack out of the Lake Havasu studio,” said Cameron Broadcasting’s Robyn Swart. “K-Flag and Lucky will come back on the air as quickly as possible after that.”

The fire has been reported in radio trade journals and websites and the result, according to Swart, has been an “outpouring of support.”

“Locally, we’ve had a real outpouring of support from businesses and listeners. And some stations from California offered some extra equipment if we need it,” she said.

Ft. Mojave-Mesa and Bullhead City Fire Departments responded to the fire with two engines, a tanker, ladder truck and a combined 34 firefighters. No one was injured in fighting the fire.

Investigation determined the fire was accidental, starting in an electrical sub panel in one of the office suites.

In Lake Havasu City, Cameron broadcasts KLUK-FM (Lucky FM), KNKK-FM (the Knack) and KFLG-FM (K-Flag). Cameron also broadcasts KAAA-AM in Kingman, KZZZ-AM in Bullhead City and KFLG-AM in Bullhead City and Kingman.
