This idea was raised at an SBE board of directors meeting. That might have been in Oct 2001 or at NAB2002. I don't remember all the specifics, but I believe that initial inquiries ran into some difficulties with getting approvals and clearances. There were also some serous costs involved in shipping.

Scott, I asked that question a few months before the  2002 
NAB. I thought it would be really nice for the SBE or a PR-
wise company to have part of that antenna on display, with 
a panel showing the seven engineers we lost. Even after five 
years, I still feel this way.

I have a question that has been on my mind the last five years.  What
happened to the TV antenna on the north tower? I would think some pieces
a 350 foot piece of material could have been seen in the rubble after
the dust cleared.
