wjph FM antenna's and transmitter installed

These pictures were taken on Tuesday afternoon, February 16, 1999.  After the FM transmitter and antenna's were installed, General Manager Ken Manri flipped the switch at 5:30 pm and put WJPH on the air for the first time.  What a blessed time that was, Praise be to God.  We thank God for each listener's prayers and financial support that made this possible.  Thank you, Tom McNally for giving of your time and talent in installing the studio and transmitting equipment.

 
The crane gently brings the tower down.  The transmitter is in the white building in the background. It's a soft landing Station Manager, Ken Manri attaches the top FM transmitting antenna
Now it's Tom McNally's turn, he's attaching the bottom FM transmitting antenna Praise God, the antennas are installed before sunset!  Weather was unusually warm that day. The QEI FM transmitter is the two light gray units at the top of the black equipment rack.  Tom's making some adjustments.
