The 2000-foot tower near the small town of Broadway in Lee County was
destroyed this afternoon. Apparently the tower (or guy wires) was hit by a
plane, though no plane wreckage has been found as of 5 PM.
The tower supported the WKFT-TV 40 transmitter (licensed to Fayetteville),
and the PCRN's 147.105 repeater, in addition to many other two-way radio
services.
