inlffW* Five Ideco Towers take the punishment at nation's most rugged antenna farm It's not always as peaceful as this on top of Mt. Wilson, 5,900 feet above Los Angeles, where Ideco towers serve 5 television stations. In the winter, loaded down with ice and hammered repeatedly with gale-force winds, these towers absorb some of the roughest punishment that towers take anywhere in the country. Despite these extreme conditions the 5 Ideco towers have faithfully done their job for each of the 3 to 10 winters they've been in service. Dependability like this is designed and fabricated into every Ideco tower. It's the unseen but essential factor contributed by the tower engineers at Dresser-Ideco from a background of knowledge unmatched in the industry. You, too, can depend on Dresser-Ideco — all the way from early planning, on through to final inspection, your tower is in the industry's most experienced hands. So when you start thinking about your new tower, start planning with Dresser-Ideco. Write us, or contact your nearest RCA Broadcast Equipment representative.
