  Besides landing in jail, probably medium level security, being highly visibile on the ground level, that tower would be excellent for UE. Anyone care to get pictures from the top? I could not imagine changing the aircraft warning light at the top, imagine that view around you, and down to the ground. Is that bigger or smaller than the KQTV tower in St. Jo?

  KCTV 5 website says it's 956ft tall. It's definitely the tallest tower of it's type i've ever seen.

  The towers of AM stations are usually "hot" in that they sit on an insulator and the transmitter feedline attaches to the bottom of the tower. Reach up and touch a hot tower base and you sizzle. RF energy doesn't shock - it burns. Unlike an AM tower, the type of tower in this picture is probably not 'hot' - it supports a radiating element at the top.

  TV is also broadcast on "FM" frequencies. The FM radio "band" itself resides between channel 6 and 7. If you have a channel 6 in your city, chances are your FM radio can get it on 87.7 if it tunes that low!
