As always, huge thanks to first responders—and in this case, to the tower climbers who were busy doing their job, maintaining the KSDK tower. I don't think "saving a guy's life by restraining him for an hour 800' in the air" is in the job description, but he did it anyway

I would not want to be a tower climber (or paramedic, not sure if they'd go up) and have to deal with a potentially-intoxicated person climbing up a 1000+ ft tower. They've been repainting the KSDK-TV tower for a couple weeks, which is why guy probably could make it to base.

It's always a good morning when you're picking up some early b-roll of towers for a new @GeerlingEng video...

Just before heading off to #VCFMW, my Dad and I got the Apple II working! I just wanted to show his neat little workshop in a video, and we wound up plugging in the old recapped PSU, and... well, here's what happened: youtube.com/watch?v=4EXsHe…

How's that 1979 Apple II restoration going? Well... for every problem we fix, another one rears its ugly head. And we now have a Mysterious Ticking Noise! youtube.com/watch?v=PZwDEq…

I did not die installing a GPS antenna at the studio with my Dad... and I got to learn some of the tricks of the trade with coax and antennas for permanent outdoor installs from him! youtube.com/watch?v=Sg4U73…

What would *you* build in a mini rack? My Dad and I are heading to NAB and will talk about our most recent mini rack builds at an Ennes workshop on Saturday! We've learned a lot, and are excited for the future of the mini lab—for radio, homelab, etc. youtube.com/watch?v=g_wTyK…

Delete! Delete! Delete! The FCC asked what regulations should be deleted from its books. Is it good for broadcast radio? Bad for hams? What would we delete? Today's video: youtube.com/watch?v=LCd-vp…

Automakers spent nearly $30 million dollars fighting against an AM radio mandate, but the US government seems ready to pass it. Here's a quick overview of the situation: youtube.com/watch?v=587Q2K…

We talked to a local engineer about some incredible drone footage he took of a recent tower climb at the St. Louis "supertower"
