I saw another vid.were they put a leaf and you could hear music coming out of it
I had that same video recommended today too. Quite shocking!
Had a boss that got his first broadcast job at a small-town AM station. Went out back to smoke a cigarette and absently-minded touched his toe to the ground-side arc ball on this tower. It was loose, and the gap closed enough to strike a bright, noisy arc. He freaked, but managed to push the ground-side ball far enough away to quench the arc without lighting himself up. He was quite relieved to find the AM transmitter was still on the air, hadn't tripped any overloads.
Would have been a good way to do it. Then again, I wonder if someone hadn't clipped a gator lead around the output of the SWR alarm. When one of those gets old and flaky, they get tired of false alarms. Management never wants to hear what a new SWR alarm will cost.
