Looking at the
East Tower |
Looking at the bottom of the WTIC West Tower (From a safe distance).
Notice the spark gaps for lightning protection, and isolation
transformers on the other side. |
Looking back at the WTIC plant from the bottom of the West Tower |
The right tower topped with WFSB-TV/DT can also
be a "hot" tower for WTIC AM as a backup tower using the Gates Five transmitter (Seen below) |
At the bottom of the TV tower. Notice the large base insulator isolating the tower from the ground. |
The grand WTIC transmission building/facility. Complete with radiation cellar which houses a backup studio. |

The two tuning coils in the dog house for the West Tower. Again this picture taken at a safe distance. |
Looking at the outside of the "doghouse" for the West Tower. |

When WTIC 1080 had the old Westinghouse transmitter, it required extensive
cooling, and
used this old wooden water tank to cool it.
