[TowerTalk] Tower base equipment enclosure

[Jim W7RY]

You may want to try to get to know the local cell site 
technician/engineer. They are changing out weathertight cabinets all the 
time.

If you see someone working at a site, stop and ask them.  But carry your 
hard hat with you in case there is tower work going on overhead so they 
don't freak out!
