This isn’t what you want to see when you look up at a tower.
But it is what Matt Ruedlinger of Fullwave Tower & Broadcast found last Friday when his crew showed up at WMGI(FM) in Terre Haute, Ind., a 50 kW Class B station owned by Midwest Communications and operating at 100.7 MHz.
“We received a call that a tree had fallen on one of the lower guy wires and when we arrived found it like this,” he told us.
“After running a few analysis scenarios, we developed a controlled drop plan and removed the tower. Everything went as well as possible with no damage to the transmitter building or nearby power lines.”
This was not related to the recent tornadoes that made headlines. The station is operating from a backup tower and plans a new structure.
