I thought I saw once that WINK 104 was in those towers.

That's actually 6 antennae, for WHP - AM 580. They're grouped in a 3 X 2
matrix. It's been there as long as I can remember - very well maintained
from what I can see (right down the hill from my parents' place).

Another (newer) interesting site is for Reading, PA's full-service
WEEU - AM 830, along I-78, near the Shartlesville exit (exit 8).
Recently built, when that station moved from it's lower-powered
facilities on 850 down to 830 (with more power).

there's also an array of towers in the Harrisburg, PA where WINK 104 is,
and
several other stations right near I-81.. there are 4 or 5 towers in a
row.

there is a tower in Island Falls or Smyrna, Maine that is so illuminated
at
night it stands out in the darkness. I don't know what's on it, but you
can
basically see it from anywhere in the town, even in Dyer Brook and some
of
the other surrounding towns. Island Falls is up in Aroostook County, and
there are few lights up there... AND it really stands out. It isn't
really
that big, but it is interesting. Also, the WDEA towers in Ellsworth/Bar
Harbor rise abruptly from the sky.
