Just Another Day At The Office...

[simply dave]

Well,

Although I manage a department of field techs, I take every opportunity to get out in the field myself. Especially for fun stuff like this. I'm the one with the camera on my helmet and the guy you see in the video is my senior tech, George. We love tower work...This is us hanging antennas ~260ft on the Jackson-Butte Tower.

would love some ascent and descent footage! how do you guys secure yourselves during the process? I felt a rush just by watching the video *shivers*
What am I seeing here, what kind of antennas? doesnt seems like VSAT though I did see a small dish

 

[WoodyO]

Have you ever spit on anybody down below?

It's actually pretty safe. We secure via a "Cable Brake" that our harnesses clip into as we ascend/descend. Any sudden rapid downward motion and it seizes up around the cable that runs the length of the tower. The dishes and panels we installed are for wireless internet access. We serve wireless subscribers across 3 counties. So you know a thing or two about RF Nan? I'm impressed.

Usually too windy. George took a piss off the tower one day and you'd swear the stream ended in the next county over. LOL!

 

[*ebony*]

That looks pretty cool. bet its exhilarating to be up there.

 

[wootoom]

can i spit?
