The Great '02 Tower Project

Page 6

   On this page, we put the last two sections up, tighten the guy wires, and install the hardline. There is also a shot of our repeater cabinet that Louis did such a great job modifying to hold all the repeater parts. And Stan cleans up. Pictures were taken by Gale and Stan Flagg, and Gil Daigle on September 19, 2002. Don't believe dates in the pictures.
