  Looking up a guy wire. Why? Because I could.  Phillystran nonmetallic wire - this is going to be used to replace the guy lines that run near the antenna elements, to avoid electromagnetic quagmires.  Here's the end. I think you're looking at Kevlar fiber here. It's stronger than steel,  but cuts with a knife. It's also $3.50 a foot or so. Welcome to the future. No, our cars do not fly yet.   The repeater whose corner can be seen below, I believe, belongs to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue. The power transformer at upper left runs hot enough to fry eggs. Touching it is not advised.   Camouflage!  Rich mounts the Stati-Cats. Down below, the log periodic antenna (the one that looks like an outdoor TV antenna) is aimed at the NBC6 tower in Princeton. It'll be picking up our signal on 88.1, and the antennas above will be for the translator output on 95.3. The little tube midway above it is the power divider for the 3-bay Bext antenna. I'm the antenna, catching vibrations; you're the transmitter, give information...  The Powerware UPS and Fanfare reciever in place
