"Reader" stated: VP Mark Vail said the farmer brought down the tower 
near Hays, Ks.
No, the array is just North of St. Joe, Mo. along and West of I-29. I 
used to work for Eagle and helped out with a couple of projects at this 
tower site. If a tower had to fall, this was the best way it could have. 
It missed the ATU and the overhead feedlines, and no one was hurt. This 
is Tower 4, the farthest West tower.
Here is a link to pics from the site:
