Boulder Junction Colorado, looking from the north east.

Recollections from Jim Hebbeln: "Boulder Juction is really hard to see/find. The tower had been painted grayish-green to be about the same color as the Boulder Flatirons rock formations that it stood before. (Nothing else would have satisfied the [note: college rivaly now enabled] Wholly-Sufficient Banana Republic of Boulder - Center of the Universe - Home of Mork & Mindy. In fact, that horrid ugly tower is likely now torn down, unless Boulderites kept it to Commune with the Universe. The tower is south of the meadow in which Mork & Mindy cavorted with their jeep, up near NCAR - National Center for Atmospheric Research - or is that Alien Research?!) If the picture was of better quality, I think Buckhorn Mountain would have shown up as a dot on the far mountain top behind the left tower leg.

I would guess about 1963-4, two more horns were added and aimed toward Greeley Juction out and to the right. At Greeley Junction, a TL/TM system was built to Fort Collins, and another TL/TM route went east to Fort Morgan and Sterling. Our radio guys in Fort Collins Main CO, some of whom came from Buckhorn Mountain, complained that TL/TM ws "cheap and dirty". Using 10 GHz, TL/TM didn't tolerate the heavy afternoon thunderstorms very well as they swept across the plains through the radio path. The antenna's were on the roof of the COs, aimed up at paddleboard reflectors. Somewhere, I've got a 1968 black-and-white picture of Milliken repeater between Fort Collins and Greeley Juction. It was a time exposure by the light of the moon with old open wire lines across the frame. I'll have to scan and send it."
