Sorry to hear about the TIC problem ...again.
When I drove by and saw the big antenna from the road I just though you had 
decided to do some work on it rather than having the decision made for you.

I've not seen it up close, but from the road it's impressive.
I couldn't find place from out there to get a good shot of it.

Good Luck.
