local residents in the area want $ 2,500 per household to help pay for
the private lawyer and hire experts to fight the tower expansion plans.

mega buck homes are all around the tower site and they don't like it.

Yes, it is the Armstrong Tower. This was the main and test site for the long
defunct Yankee Network of FM stations.

It is discussed in some detail in the book: " Empire of the Air".

Surely some Radio Club of America folks on this NG can drop us a few choice
trivia nuggets on the Armstrong tower:-)

Now, today's (related) quiz: where was (and what is located there now) the
"Wardenclyffe ' tower of Tesla fame:-)?
Hint: it's about 80 miles from the Alpine site.
