Default Re: RTE 1 252kHz to go off air for maintenance

They won't be dropping this mast (I hope! ) being a mast-radiator. Looks like there's work on the antenna system though, from the blurb. Weather-wise, what appears calm on the ground might not be so calm aloft. Rigging winch bonds and platforms and all that jazz eats into outage time.

Maybe ground radials need repairing / replacing too?
