Is that a weather station in the last photo Greg? |
It is a photo of a communication shell. Due to the fact that winter is, well I don't have to tell you Joe. ( Ugly to say the least ) Snow and ice would build up on the antenna's and break them off and also burry them in the winter, so the radio repeaters and antenna's are in side for protection. There are times when half the com shells are burried in snow and all is well, we do have to dig down to get in the door in winter months. The shells are about 30 feet tall and have solar pannels on the outside of them to keep the batteries charged..
