My brother (r.I.p.) would have liked this. He designed, installed, and long maintained WVPR's microwave towers statewide and he too was a gifted photographer although I don't recall him ever shooting his towers.A venerable AT&T bldg, prominent at Canal and West Broadway in nyc, added a huge, impressive apparatus to its roof several years ago. When I pointed it out to him his comment was that it didn't do anything—explained it was a transmitter that to transmit would needs parts that were absent. Who've known? —df.nyc
He and I rarely lived there simultaneously. He lived in Parkersburg and Morgantown from the early '40s till his death in Charleston in '21 except for navy years and several more in New York. I fled as soon as I graduated from WVU in the late '50s and have stayed put in ny.

Thanks for the note. Peace upon thy brother and his memory. What years did you live in the state?
