2/9/2009 4:42:13 PM

2/9/2009 5:03:13 PM

I have been on the roof of Bragaw, its white and the glare is intense.


IF you do make it on the roof of DH Hill, do not walk in front of any of the radio dishes, I was told there is one that will fuck you up. you can get past it by crawling on the catwalk in front of it.

2/9/2009 6:11:29 PM

^ what do you mean? it will melt you?

2/9/2009 6:35:41 PM

used to go up on the roof of the ymca in high point for fun

2/9/2009 6:36:41 PM

Which transmitter is 100,000W? WKNC's transmitter up there is at 25,000W. I know there is a shit load of stuff up there though.

2/9/2009 6:47:54 PM

back in the olden days, circa 2002, the transmitter was at 100kW according to an engineer that worked there. he may have been wrong.

but 25KW is still a lot and will fry birds, your junk, etc

As for campus, I've only been on the roof of Jordan.

you can ride the freight elevator to the roof of Daniels, although the roof is littered with radio equipment and not really a roof you want to chill on.

[Edited on February 9, 2009 at 11:13 PM. Reason : or you can scale over the edge of Wood Hall and get to the roof if you have the balls to free climb.]

2/9/2009 11:12:07 PM

is that the bridge over the beltline near the wade avenue exit?

that is one fucking awesome picture. high res copy maybe?

2/9/2009 11:35:25 PM

I went on top of the library for a meteor shower, it was pretty sweet. A little too bright though.

^Yeah, you can only get on it during the day, the lock the gates at sundown. It's part of the trail that connects Meredith to the art museum. I've been up their a few times.

You can get on top of the Math building at Meredith too, the stairs go straight up. You might want to bring a female though so no one thinks you are some creep just walking around an all-girls campus by yourself.
