WHAM 1180 Rochester  
 



The tall 1180 tower in the country, out on Ballentyne Road,  Chili, NY


A nice sunny view of the tower.


A wide angle shot of the transmitter building and tower.


Inside the building, the primary 3DX50 transmitter.


And the backup MW10 transmitter plus STL gear


A better look at the STL gear and equipment racks.


In the building is this old MW50, which I believe isn't connected anymore.


In the basement is the old Westinghouse transmitter electrical disconnect.


And the old electrical cage used.



Looking at the base of the tower, the ATU (Far) and the former 98.9 transmitter building (closer).



Another shot of the ATU and the base.


Looking at the coils used to tune the 1180 antenna.
