Hello All,
The local department of Forestry has an observation tower that is
over 200' off the ground. I would like to put my UHF Amateur repeater
on that tower. I stopped by yesterday and talked to the Fire Fighter
that was stationed there. He had told me that cellphone companies had
asked if they could put some equipment on the tower and the DOF flat
out said no; however, the guy I talked to said a friend of his was a
Ham and had expressed an interest in putting a Ham repeater on the
tower and it was okayed but the Ham moved before anything was put into
effect. The guy I talked with said to leave my contact information and
he would pass it on to his boss and have him contact me with more
information.
I was wondering if anyone has done anything tower related with the
Department of Forestry? If so what was your experiance like? I
remember reading somewhere that hams and the DOF have an MOU together
for tower space, anyone know anything about that? Any past experiances
and tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and 73.
