I DVR'd the 12 mid feed. The problem was at the top of the tower, a
3" 90 degree elbow has developed a leak along the weld seam. They were
going to do a simple glue/tape repair. I would have wanted to replace
the elbow. And when they put the glue on. the line was still
pressurized, which caused a delay of time problem. . I even mentioned to
my wife, when they started the climb, that I hope they opened the purge
valve at the bottom, so there was no pressure.. But they didn't. Too bad
they didn't have a 5 second B roll of the transmitter room. We all know
that is what "we" here wanted to see!
Nice looking FM DA array. There were the typical media type reporting
errors, but overall it was not bad.
