| Cold War Microwave
Site
The Culleoka tower was formerly part of the AT&T
long distance microwave system. With the advent of fiber-optics, the
microwave towers became ineffecient. AT&T has now sold most of the
towers to private companies. We recently (November 2002) acquired this
structure from American Tower Corporation. The tower is 175 Feet tall
and is capable of holding more antennas than we can possibly place on
it. The adjoining building has more than 1900 square feet of floor space
and was constructed to withstand the forces generated by a nuclear blast
35 miles away. The structure is located 2.5 miles from Highway 50 in
Culleoka, Tennessee. Ground elevation is 1124 feet. The coordinates
for the Culleoka site are 35-29-23,-87-01-33. For information please
