Note, important safety tip: you can get closer to this tower without clearly trespassing or jumping fences than most other 50KW broadcast antennas I’ve encountered. I measured a field strength of over 80V/m a bit outside the tower fence, which is an incredibly strong signal (though still within OSHA limits at the frequency involved).
Resist any temptation to jump the fence and climb the (energized) tower. You’d be electrocuted as soon as you touch it.

@fencepost@infosec.exchange those people are insane
@mattblaze@federate.social @fencepost@infosec.exchange But in a good way, you must admit.
@20002ist@thepit.social @fencepost@infosec.exchange Absolutely!
