In the fringe areas, especially, where the TV towers reach like countless fingers into the sky, a closer look will show that many of them are within falling reach of power lines. While it is true that the anten nas supported by pipe are guyed three or four ways, and that the self-supporting type of cower is supposed to withstand um-teen miles an hour winds, who can tell what stress they will take □ few years after corrosion and de cay have begun? When a TV antenna falls on a power line, exactly what will happen is anybody's guess — but the results ar bound to be far from beneficial! The TV set will probably be ruined, fire may break out. people may be electro- cuted. Many local codes prohibit the erection of antenna towers with in falling reach of power lines. Other codes require an additional guy opposite the power line. Keep in mind the importance of safely locating TV antennas. If you have one that is already installed, and within falling range of a power line, you’ll spara yourself a lot of grief if you have it relocated.
