Haywood Co. ham radio signal improved, antenna relocated to Stanton
STANTON, Tenn. — Residents of Haywood County can rest easy now that ham radio signals are being improved.
Three years ago when the local ham radio operators’ original tower went down in Brownsville, the service became spotty.
One of the aldermen in Stanton had the idea of bringing the old antenna from that tower and placing it on the Stanton water tower.
“The coverage is going to be more comprehensive and more complete for everything in Haywood County, particularly south of the Hatchie River,” Stanton Mayor Allen Sterbinsky said.
After testing the radio signal, officials said they were able to talk to someone in Olive Branch, Miss.
