Untouched since about 1992. Filled with birds, bird nests and bird poop, paperwork and mountains of unopened spare parts and assemblies. From the days when long distance was carried over microwave links spaced 25 miles apart. These relay sites also carried television network feeds. The engineering and build quality is extreme. Hundreds of feet of solid copper waveguides. 12" steel reinforced concrete walls and ceilings to withstand a nuclear blast. Incinerator toilet. High $ Western Electric TD-2 microwave transceivers unceremoniously decommissioned with looseleaf paper and cellophane tape.
