"The KØAMC Repeater Tower Construction"
The tower was constructed, and erected back in 1983. The tower is located in High Ridge, MO at the home QTH of Rich Riley, WAØZPD. The ground elevation at the tower base is 94Ø ASML, and the tower is 16Ø feet to the tip. The following pictures were taken during the long month, of labor of love, in getting this tower assembled, and in place. There were only a few people involved in the construction, and they all worked very hard to finish the project, with no pay.
