W1BB's water tower shack was in a little hut at the base of the tower. I visited Stew back in the 1970's and got a tour of that QTH. As I recall, the shack also served as a civil defense facility, which is the connection that allowed Stew to operate from there. I remember Stew telling me that the local hoodlums would sometimes cut his feedlines, which were out in the open, and he had to keep a watch on things to stay on the air.
