The following pictures are from our 2000 foot transmitter being constructed in Trenton in 1981.  Thanks to Angelo "Butch" Figurella who was the Chief Engineer here from 1976-1982.

This is the main concrete pad that the transmitter tower sits on... it is about 36 feet deep and 8 feet in diameter

The rebar tube for the transmitter pad is now (36 feet deep) is inserted into the ground and filled with concrete.

Here you can see the bottom end of the tower... (the tower sits on the 3 foot round disc... the wires do most of the work.)

Here they are lifting the bottom end of the tower into place.

The bottom of the tower is bolted onto the concrete pad.

This is the actual Analog transmitter system inside the building.  It was replaced in 2006.

This is a look from the base of one of the wires holding up the tower.  The big metal part at the bottom is a big shock absorber... yes the tower does sway a bit.

This is the transmitter building being constructed.
