Flying High in Westmore: ITW Radio Tower Balloon Test

Past event
Apr 26, 2024, 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM

On Friday, April 26th from 7:30 AM to approximately 2:30 PM (winds permitting), there will be a balloon test to determine the visibility of the proposed 140ft radio tower slated to be built on Frog Hollow Lane, Westmore. Due to possible winds, the best viewing times are most likely between 7:30 AM and 10:30 AM. The balloon will be flown at the same height as the proposed tower--140ft.

If you are concerned about the impact a 140 ft radio tower might have on the viewshed of Lake Willoughby and the surrounding area, pop over to your favorite lake vista and take a photo. Photos can be submitted to @radio_free_willoughby on Instagram.
