It is a Comet Tri-Bander of sort, a G6-220 for the 224.100 repeater, and a DB-420 for the 444.325 repeater. Here is a view of the tower from the North/Northwest. In case you are wondering, the tower is 190 ft tall and we are at the 100 ft mark. Here is another view of the tower, this time from the East/Southeast. Here's the best part. FOOD!
