Here is Paul Newberry, N4PN, answer to Scott's inquiry.?? Apparently he didn't know of the commercial use of the antenna.?? 73, John, K4BAI


Hi:
The Monster 4el Beam is right down town on top of the old Rescue Mission Building....
I never knew the operator or his call.....However, I was having breakfast at Krystal one morning
a few years ago when a lady saw my car tag and introduced herself. She was also a ham, can???t
remember her call except she was a K4 and had been a ham for long time. The station and beam
belonged to her husband, but he had long left Macon to accept another position.
The beam is still a ???wonderful sight??? for us hamoholics on a big tower up in the air on top of that
multi-story building.....located two blocks off Cherry Street, the main street, on what was always
known as Broadway, but now it???s changed to Marlin Luther King Blvd.
73, Paul, N4PN??

I am in Columbus, about 90 miles west of Macon on the Alabama line. Thanks for the signal report.?? I do go to Macon several times a year and do not remember seeing this.?? I have forwarded the message to Paul Newberry, N4PN, in Macon and will let you know what response I get.?? 73, John, K4BAI.
