KPLU presents ... KPLI

7:00am, September 9th, 2006 -- The Raad Building in Olympia.



Crews gather. (Crane; Construction; Tower Riggers; Engineering)
That's the crane on the right.
The mast for the antenna is on top of the white truck at the left.



Preparing the mast...



Assembing a jigsaw puzzle...



That one goes 37.5" from the end...



The antenna takes shape on the mast...



It's lifting time...



Up she goes....



And over the roof...



And down to her new home...



Bolted in...



Time to climb...



Unhook the crane...



The crane's job is done...



Three happy KPLU staffers...



And the state capitol gets set for a new radio station...
