Hey there all.
I just had a few questions about those tall antennas we see on the horizon all the time.
1. Is that entire thing itself the radiator, or is it just a structure where smaller antennas are mounted for height?
2. Generally, who owns those things? I mean the structure itself.
3. How tall are the tallest ones I see out there? I'm guessing something like 1000ft.
4. They all seem to have approximately 100' sections that alternate red and white in color. Is there a practical reason for that, or is the paint job just for aesthetics?
Thanks for any info.
