[Spooks] MDZhB Transmitter Site

[Fritz Nusser]

Hi Mike
 
Tolba radio site is in my database since a while. I'm however not
too confident whether it is still manned. Resolution is not the best one too.
Col the interrupted fence, pile-ups of rubbish, and a series of 
- abandoned ? - vans. There is an incredible amount of such places
from the USSR era.
 
Best regards
