     Well, for historical preservation I think one must 
have, for instance, RCA fishbone antennas or large rhombics 
or long beverage antennas or large, flat-top, umbrella 
antennas (for 160 and experimental 600 meters).  Some can be 
made rotating by means of railroad tracks. Plus property tax 
exemption for the large farms necessary.  Perhaps we can get 
somthing additional for animal preservation by having (as I 
once saw at KSE) a horse grazing around the towers.
