Hi all, new trasplant from NYC to Miami.

In NYC I worked as an apprentice for Mackay Radio on Long Island. Those multiband yagi antennas were monstrous. I also worked as an apprentice for Lin/Pageboy/Aircall in NYC. They had paging and mobile phone service antennas on the Empire State Building. I was nervous as a cat but got to see the famous Alford FM antenna array. Quite impressive.

If I may. This is a little known story of a B-25 bomber, the Empire State Building crash and Betty Lou Harris.
