We´re on our way to one of the most famous stadions in the world, and suddenly, out of nowhere, the sky opens up and the sun sheds some strong light on out destination.
Now it fits in your pocket !
Who remembers that they used to have telephone directories in them and a yellow pages ! And phoning your mum from a Spanish one when on holiday !
Große, hohe Masten und dicke Überland-Stromleitungen sind der Preis, den wir für unsere bequeme Welt mit verfügbarem elektrischem Strom und mobiler Kommunikationsbereitschaft für Telefon und Internet akzeptieren müssen. Schön sehen sie ja vielleicht nicht aus, aber Schönheit liegt immer im Auge des Betrachters. Glücklicherweise /aus meiner Sicht) sieht es nicht an jedem Platz so aus wie auf diesem Foto.
Big, tall pylons and thick overhead power lines are the price we have to accept for our comfortable world with available electric power and mobile communication readiness for telephone and internet. They may not look pretty, but beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Fortunately (from my point of view), not every place looks like this photo.
Revolving Restaurant and Toronto's Telecommunications Tower
The CN Tower has UHF, VHF, Microwave, TV and fixed mobile communications facilities.
The tower is comprised of two main observation decks:
(1) the lower and larger SkyPod at 1,150 ft (351 m),
(2) and the higher but smaller Space Deck at 1,465 ft (447 m).
The SkyPod consists of three levels:
(1) an outdoor and indoor observation deck with a partial glass floor,
(2) The Horizons Café with another indoor observation deck,
(3) and a revolving restaurant named "360".
-The Revolving Restaurant "360"makes a complete rotation once every 72 minutes.
-The Space Deck is the world's highest public observation deck.

Toronto, Canada
Although hard to see, dangerous slabs of ice develop on the northeast side of the upper spire of the CN Tower (above and below the pod) and for this reason the Toronto police ordered the closing of the downtown section of the Gardiner Expressway last month.
While lighter winds have allowed the Gardiner Expressway to reopen, officials are stumped about how to deal with slabs of ice that form and cling to the CN Tower.
CN Tower Facts:
Building#112537
Cost: $63 million
Completed in 1976
Located at Front Street West
near Union Station
Zoned: Railway Lands
Entertainment District
Height: 553 m (1,815 feet)

When the U.S. Army Africa Forward Command Element rolls onto a C-130 to head to Ghana in August, it will be with state of the art electronics allowing worldwide communications.
The USARAF FCE, similar to a tactical operations center with sophisticated internet and video teleconference capabilities, is a flexible command post that responds to deployment requests through U.S. Africa Command.
“The USARAF FCE can move out and be in any given African country in less than 72 hours,” said Sgt. Maj. Aaron Miller, non-commissioned officer in charge of the USARAF Contingency Command Post.
During a recent tour of the mobile command center, USARAF Commander, Maj. Gen. David R. Hogg saw firsthand the power and flexibility of the mobile command post.
“Our C-130 version of a crisis command headquarters makes USARAF capable of deploying anywhere in the world if needed, but more specifically, anywhere in Africa. We can roll off the plane and within two hours have a fully operationally command and control system to cover any environment, Army pure, joint or inter-agency. We have tremendous capability now,” Hogg said.
Hogg expressed his gratitude to Soldiers of the USARAF G-6, Communications and Information Services and higher headquarters.
“Colonel Joe Angyal and his G-6 staff have done a wonderful job and none of this would have happened without the support of Headquarters Department of the Army. So we definitely want to thank them,” Hogg added.
NEW COMMUNICATIONS GEAR GIVES WORLDWIDE REACH
Recently, USRAF communications Soldiers with the FCE took on the challenges that new electronics can pose. The new system provides worldwide communications capability along with the added ability to work from a remote location with few amenities.
“We have about two weeks of training to smooth out some of the wrinkles” said Maj. Gary Philman, the USARAF signal operations officer and acting chief of the CCP. “We’ve been fortunate to get the new communications package and we’re integrating it with some of our existing systems.”
Philman said the FCE is the deployable headquarters for USARAF, and can be the first organization to hit the ground in advance of a joint task force.
“The FCE staff size depends on the mission request and can vary from eight to more than 20 personnel,” Philman said. “Our commanding general comes with the FCE when requested by an ambassador, [but] it can be commanded by a USARAF staff colonel or the CCP chief,” Philman said.
USARAF Spc. James Lagerstrom, information technology specialist with the CCP, deploys with FCE as one of the Soldiers ensuring the command element’s communications gear is up and running.
“Wherever we go … we can communicate,” Lagerstrom said. “We have internet and even have video teleconference ability [as well as] highly mobile.”
In August the FCE will get a chance do a live shakedown test of its communications equipment in the Republic of Ghana.

1979 Ford Ranchero GT - as I got it. One of the former owners was a CB *NUT*. I still haven't figured out what all this equipment is, but know it is associated with the antenna "arrays" mounted all over the roof and windshield. Very top is a speaker, under that a CB. I'm guessing the next is a scanner of some sort and the GE unit below? No idea. Could be CB Side Band, HAM, or Short Wave Radio for all I know..... next picture is another GE unit behind the passenger seat - HUGE for automotive electronics, and I think it may be a companion piece for the bottom component here.
After a couple hours in the car, I've determined:
Top = blown out speaker
2nd = Radio Shack TRC-466 Citizen's Band Radio (CB)
3rd = Wilson Citi-Com II
4th = General Electric (still a mystery what this actually is, but verified that it does in fact tie to the larger unit behind the passenger's seat)
