I was watching this you-tube video on Travis Pastrana base jumping and there is a tall antenna in Texas that i want to find... any help... any one know where this is and how tall it is. it looks to be over 1000ft. here is a link to the video if you want to see what I'm talking about.

oh man, you just put a red-bull sponsored Travis Pastrana video on this board..that is a big NoNo(ask wwarped)...it`s even worse than site naming

google maps... and berkanna....

You are probably looking for one in particular, so this may not help but.....

Check out the sectionals there, remember the number in parenthesis is the height above ground. I've found a few nice ones starting there. Especially helpfull if you are looking for really tall ones.

Leroy, what or who is berkanna?

berkana was an awesome site to search for As - but it has been down for 3 years+, this just shows how often he uses it :)

I know where alot of the tall ones are. Some have really easy access, and others not so easy. I know exactly which tower it is and it is really easy access, well for me ha. Regardless i know of at least 8 that are all over 1000'. If you are going to be in texas pm me and we will go hit one.

I didnt want to give out the site I normaly use... it's obvious what most people use.

I'd rather help a BASE jumper gain some researchability skills...

Yep, found my favorite Texas tower with no problem!

 [city], TX
GPS [coordinates]
There is something like 13 towers 6 are well over a thousand ft. Give me a heads up for anyone wanting to hit them up.

This is actually a better site:

removed the effective "site naming" info --- wwarped

Can you post an exact address with maybe, um, what kind of towers they are and maybe, um, a phone number, and um, who owns them. I think I may try to call them to see if they want to come out and watch us jump.

dont forget the media! i wanna be on t.v. too! :P yay yay I wanna go to hawaii yay yay!!!! gimmeee the record jimmy!!!! buh dump bump bum uh! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

on the fcc asr registration website, it appears as though certain towers are not registered. which seems odd especially if something is big. does anyone know where one might find the rules governing when why and how you would or would not have to register a tall structure (as the owner of it) with the fcc?

Hey jackass let me know if your heading out I live in this said town and have been to all of the towers you are talking about. We jump them quite a bit. Burn them and i will tar and feather you. No questions asked. Other wise im down to make a jump

TAR AND FEATHER !!!

I have been thinking ahead for a while, and currently have some ready just have to go pick it up.
