[SBE] WUSA video on antenna install for Washington DC CH24

[Edwin Bukont]

Norm isn't running UST anymore.  Given that there are two FMs on there, and the need to mitigate the impact to those tenants, a chopper is the only way to swap antennas on that tower.  The could have gotten that service from any tower company, as it was not the tower company that flies the chopper.   I prefer Carson Helicopters myself.Edwin Bukont CSRE, DRB, CBNT Comm-Struction and Services LLC V- 410.879.5567 F- 410.272.5750 C- 240.417.2475 ebukont at msn.com A Harris Broadcast Channel Partner > Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2008 14:32:45 -0400> From: bdoerle at mail.ucf.edu> To: sbe at sbe.org> Subject: Re: [SBE] WUSA video on antenna install for Washington DC CH24> > Norm Jeweler, US Tower, likes choppers. He did the same for the TV antenna that went on the top of Metropolitan Police Department's tower back in the early eighties. It is quick and easy.
