What great news! That reminds me....

I went to Liberty Mountain, the Aspen of Adams County, Pennsylvania, on
Saturday night. There's a quad (four-person) lift chair that goes from
the lodge, which is on the front side of the mountain, up to the top of
the hill. From there, you have access to the entire ski area, both the
front and back sides of the mountain.

There's a lift station at the top of the chair lift, where you get off
the chairs, and adjacent to that station is a radio antenna. I thought it
might be a repeater for GMRS, but a safety patrol member I asked about it
said that the antenna is for the use of Liberty Mountain's radio system.

Am I just rilly stoopid, and that antenna has been there for years? Have
I not been paying any attention to it until now, or is it something new?

Note to rapbep: D*** C***** was not sighted, even though I was near ...
well, you know.
