Mt Arapiles

Another day in the office

Here I am in another transmission site. Just another day in the office.


Here I am standing at the AM transmission mast (the photo doesn't show), which is about 185 meters high. As shown in the photo, I am holding a grounding rod to ground the mast. The transmitter has been switched off. Look at that SPARK !!!.

Omeo

This time I was officially in the high country town.

I was up at Omeo for work, a tiny little town in the Victorian Great Alpine region. It's not very far from the snow field during the winter season. The population of the town is ... I am not sure. I was there was there for 3 days and 3 nights, and I probably had only seen less than 10 people roaming around the streets. By the looks of it, it is a dying town. What a pity, it sure is a beautiful high country town.

The three photos show Omeo town, it was a cool morning. Look at the heavy fog at the mountain top.

Here I am up at Mt. Livingstone summit. The background shows the heavy fog trapped between the mountain valleys at 7:30am.
