Mt. Bigelow is the hub of CARBA's microwave linking project. Located east of Mt. Lemmon, Mt. Bigelow is situated such that there are many line-of-sight paths available. As our system grew, our site on Mt. Bigelow matured. As we changed, so did the building. We were originally located in the attic of the television transmitter building. With the advent of digital TV, the building was expanded and our little attic space became a full blown floor with 3 dtv transmitters next to us. Our original racks and microwave interface. Some of the dishes were mounted indoors. The front of the new rack sports a SRS controller. Looking from the back, all the mux cross-connections are made via a panel of punch down blocks wired by N6DGT. The antennas were mounted outdoors on the new ice shield superstructure of the building. Our Mt. Lemmon facing dish.
