This is a huge loss for telecommunications history preservation.
While the Museum of Communications (http://museumofcommunications.org/ http://museumofcommunications.org/) in Seattle has switching equipment (much of it one-of-a-kind - JKL specialized in Station Hardware and other items, and had many priceless one-of-a-kind prototypes and the like - it will be hard to duplicate or find again everything that was located at JKL - JKL was also starting collect extensive documentation for preservation as well.
I'm just heartbroken at the scale of the loss, I'd targeted JKL for my next trip into California, but I guess I'm too late.
