Tower 47
This is an interesting tower because it is the 3rd one at Snow valley Mountain. It can reach across the entire valley to Stayner with 5.8 ghz, provide non line of sight service to the Snow valley hiland estates "east development" and yet another 2.4 ghz transmitter facing the valley itself. Interestingly the tower is separate feed point from the other two and a second hop out of Barrie making it ULTRAFAAST!!
