Thanks.

I sure would like to know the story about why that Thunderbolt 1000 was placed at 36th and Indian Hills Road. Back in the 1000 days, that was on the city limit and out in the boonies.

Bryan, which one was the 4th? I'm only coming up with three. NHS, Courthouse, and that one that was in the boneyard.


They were: NHS, Courthouse, 24th Ave NW and Hemphill Drive (near Lowes), and way out there at 36th and Indian Hills

Did you mean Lindsey and Wylie? 24th and Hemphill was a 1000T that was my second choice.


Woops! Yeah I meant Lindsey & Wylie!

How did your reply get piggybacked onto my post? ARS is acting weird for me.

It's like that on my end too. I think the server might be having some issues.

Actually, I've never heard Lindsey and Wylie either. I knew it has always had a broken rotator, though. It pointed the same direction my whole life until they replaced the almost 45 degree angle pole.

How in the world did that happen? I replied but it shows up as Raymond posted it...

Bryan, maybe you meant to hit "Post Reply" but accidentally edited Raymond's post instead?

I think Trevor is right. I've done it a few times before. For us mods/admins, the edit button is next to the quote button on every post and it's easy to do.

The rotator on the Lindsey and Wylie Thunderbolt was was rusted so bad that we had to pound it off the siren with a sledgehammer. But we cleaned it up and it works now.
