[BC] TV tower kills birds

[Rob Atkinson]

hi Paul,
any idea what those orange balls do to the windloading?  if it were me, i 
don't think i'd be real wild about having to use them.  maybe 50 isn't as 
bad as i think.  no ice in fla.

Maybe you could put those big orange balls used near airfields on them...
Theres a FM tower near Ft. Myers Beach, FL that really has "balls"  Must be
50 of them on all the guy wires.

Or someone forgot to report a dark "beekon".
Someone down on the station's pecking order?

Anyhoo- if this is such a cause of carnage, what would be a solution?
Streamers on the guy wires in certain areas? Something to make them more
visible?

I ask too many questions.
