He should be busy trying to get the eight towers from that dark AM

It requires $2 million in insurance, to take on the job.

how tall are the towers?

Metalworking wise, I am busy cutting railroad rails (112 lbs per yard)
into 11 inch pieces that fit into flat rate boxes. Doing so with a bandsaw.


The towers are new enough to be resold to another radio station, as
long as they are taken down with care. It would be worth looking into
the county's property database to see what the heights are. Also, there
are probably miles of heavy copper wire buried around the towers, for a
counterpoise. There isn't a lot of time left to get them, before they
are simply cut down and hauled as scrap.
