        There are two large microwave towers close to me.  The biggest
one is called Norway.  It still has over a dozen dishes and horns on it
at various heights and bearings.  It is a monster tower.  If you know
where to look you can see it from Interstate 80  around Illinois MP 100. 
 It's on high ground (of course) so there are lots of other towers in the
general area.    At one time there were a number of AT&T Long Lines folks
employed there, but I have no idea how many may be left.    There used to
be a number of underground cables in the Chicago area that had warning
notices with the Norway telephone number to call for information.    I
should go by there and take some pictures of it before they drop it I
guess.

        There is also a large AT&T tower close beside I80 Near Orland
Park Ill that still had horns on it last I looked.
