Para_Frog 1 #4 March 1, 2007 You got yourself an antenna superintendant who is too cheap to buy plywood and snaked a piece of a lawyer's old sign. That's just good stuff. Bet for a 6-pack he'd sit on his tailgate and video ya.- Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twoply 0 #7 March 5, 2007 Do I see another A in the backround? Ones that close together are usually AM, in my experience. Definitely looks like a warning though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabre210 0 #8 March 5, 2007 Almost certainly AM. Go touch it. You'll soon find out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenMachine 0 #9 March 5, 2007 Based on who owns these antennas, there is definitely FM, TV, and weather, not sure about AM but due to the numerous guidewires and power lines it does not matter because I am not jumping any of them. Before getting laid off I spent some time compiling a spreadsheet with potential local objects based on data from the antenna website and Google Earth. Now that I have free time I am visiting each antenna to the find the best one to open. Not only is it a fun way to kill time I think it is a good exercise to scout the objects, evaluate landing areas, think about the required winds for a safe exit, etc.Rigger, Skydiver, BASE Jumper, Retired TM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
