Fox 35 live cam tracks Guardian construction

Roger Simmons, August 22, 2009

guardianHow excited is Fox 35 about getting its new $1.5 million Guardian dual pole radar? The station has set up a live cam so folks can follow along with the construction progress. The station broke ground for the Doppler tower on Aug. 5.
