My niece lives around the corner from Paul, NO8D. I didn't realize this when 
I went to visit her. She told me that some guy makes TV antennas lives near 
her. Right!

Check this out on Google Earth. Move around the property and see how many 
towers you can find. Look west of the rear of his property because there are 
more towers there.
It is amazing. The coordinates for the house are:

41  13  56.39 N
81  35  14.95 W

I double spaced between the degrees, minutes and seconds.

He truly has an amazing antenna farm.
