Hello, and was that a shunt-fed AM broadcast tower? You might just get
away with a grab at ground level. OTOH, I would think that grabbing onto
a live base-insulated type tower would have serious consequences when
being fed by a 10 kW transmitter. Just looking at the RF bypass hardware
needed at the base to provide for tower lighting (Austin transformer or
Collins lighting choke) should be enough to say "keep away" while
transmitting. Sincerely, and 73s from N4GG0,
