1500 Foot Tower Down in Daytona/Orlando Market

Post by Cameron »

Cox's WCFB (Star 94.5) had a 1500 foot tower fall during the tornadoes in Central Florida on 2/1/07.
They're back on-the-air from a temporary-location.
I have a friend in New Smyrna Beach that had the two houses on either side of him totally destroyed and his truck is totalled.

The belly-punch is the fact that 9 of the major Lake County Public Service/EMS/Fire licenses were on this tower. There's a lot of command-centers with pneumatic-masts at that site right now.

Jim Hoge took some of these pictures.
