The big push was getting the RCA TT10H 10,000 watt transmitter up the hill and on the air. The road was verily usable so each of the six individual transmitter sections was load on a 4 wheel drive jeep with chains on all wheels. Student power was the only thing available on the mountain top to unload and move in the transmitter.

Cecil works on the transmitter while Gordon looks at the Video power amp.

Cecil and Walt finalize the mechanical installation, awaiting the power to be brought to the mountain top

When the road is to slick for the pickup, Walt uses his head to solve the problem.
