Wow, I wonder how much that study cost us...
Maybe all tall, guyed, towers should be replaced with self-supported towers...

I wonder how much land a 2000' seld-supported tower would require...

Subject: [CRTech] bird counting

The Georgia Association of Broadcasters sent us info on the NPRM for bird mortality. Here are two astute observations in the report: 
 
That all other things being equal, taller towers with lights tend to represent more of a 
hazard to birds than shorter, unlit towers; 
 
That towers with guy wires create higher risks than self-supporting towers;
