Aerial view over the radio site. This site has news gathering antennas for most of the tv stations, and we put most of 'em up, including a few "beauty shot" cameras

Ya never hav? WTF? jk, it really is the best, ya gotta take a ride in one in vegas or something sometime. We manage to get a few rides a year, especially in weather like recent, when the remote systems like these shite the bed and you can't 4WD up the roads.
BTW, I'll bet Nicki would love it too...

Man, if only I woulda known. I could've had you PM our radios and scoop the snow out of our dish. The road going up there really sucks. Single truck width most of the time, mountain on one side and a very long fall on the other. Not to mention the whoops. Last time I was there we were moving transmitters from one building to the next. While stacking them in the new building, the guy I was working with let is slip and I almost lost a finger. :squiggle: Anyways, the ride down was the longest ride ever.
Nice pics! Looked like fun. Didn't mean to hi-jack your thread but those pics were just giving me flashbacks. :D

NOPE, fullerton to santiago and back. a couple years back I called some friends and told them we were going to fly over their house, and they were out back in their yard waving. His wife was flashing the chopper so the pilot circled for a while, then wanted to know if their were any others I wanted to fly over! :jawdrop:
