Tower #2 Base Foundation

On May 2nd, we began the excavation of the Tower #2 Base Foundation. In reality, this will be the relocation of one of the towers of the site. This tower will be set exclusively to the “hunter” station. The foundation is 4′ x 4′ x 4′ and will be filled with 30MPa concrete and steal reinforcement.

The photos above show the position of the new tower in relation with the actual 60ft tower – Tower #1 – (in the background) which hold the A4S + XM240.

The steel reinforcement and two new 2″ O.D. masts are still in Recife waiting for the boat transportation. We hope to dispatch them yet on the first week of May.

To make transportation easy, we decided to bent and cut the steal reinforcement yet in Recife.
