Antenna Tower behind B&H#repeater

Good afternoon all.

I wandered over to B&H today to have a look at the tower over there. It’s still snowed in pretty good so I didn’t go right up to it, but I took some photos from the side area behind the store.

It’s fairly grown up around the base of it, and needs a clean up.

The tower looks like its in pretty good shape I think. There are two antennas mounted on it currently.

Pictures attached for your info. I have a few more photos. Will send shortly.

Hey Glenn

B&H is the grocery store on Saunders Street in Kemptville. It’s sort of a landmark around here however I forgot that some of you would not be familiar with it. The tower is out behind the store.

Hello all,

Frank went and measured the tower and it looks to be approx 75ft.

Based on a few coverage maps I ran it looks like it will significantly improve the coverage.

I'll share them once I get back to my pc.
