I like it!! Needs some two-way antennas near the top. Maybe a loband loop or
two side mounted and a cell platform at about "100" feet.
To be a "W8JI" site, it needs some companions with wires strung between them,
hi hi.
For several years, the 400' self support tower at the Texas Instruments HQ
facility near Dallas "blinked" T I in Morse from the top beacon light. And
the tower was within 2 miles of the FCC field office.
Maybe this one can "blink" J I.
tnx
