KDX is Building a Radio Tower

Tower Progress

It was amazing today synchronizing as we did with nature's tempo. In mid-morning we filled a yard-waste-bag and just as we topped it off rain began to fall so we hiked it indoors to piddle with the radio station.

In early afternoon things cleared a bit so we trimmed the hedges along the public walkway and again, just as we finished the task, it began to pour rather darkly.

Indoor lighting is being used as we approach 2:30 in the afternoon.

Oh, and we toured the tower site and extended the path back there that had become overgrown, with plans to utilize large green tarps to smother out the vines and ground cover so as to expose the construction area for tower and radials.

The first long-distance transmission cables between the Internet Building and the tower will be above ground on some kind of little "telephone poles" made from bamboo stalks.

Once that system is working we will begin to add redundant pathways using wireless technology.

If Rump doesn't blow up the world it could get to be fun.
