A triubte to the GUN HILL
tower.
GUN
HILL New Hampshire.
This
tower is what used to be home to WRLP-32.
WRLP
was a "sister" station to WWLP 22 in Springfield.

But
be prepared to spend a few hours at this amazing site.
The tower was 660' tall.
The
tower, is still standing, and easy to get to in Winchester New

the
road turns to dirt.
