New Tower At Southside Fire Station #1

Southside Fire Station #1 has been turned into the new dispatch center for EMS since the acquisition of MedStar.  This is to be a temporary location while a new center is built somewhere on Dean Forest Rd.  This station happens to be where we have our Coastal Amateur Radio Society radio station and antenna tower.  It's also a location where we have many radio events including our annual Field Day.  The addition of the dispatch center required the installation of a new antenna tower for the department.  Here are some pictures that I took this week.
