What a pleasant
surpise it was to stumble across this stealth site in Peterborough.
It was my second time ever in downtown Peterborough, and the first time
was years ago (before I started documenting cell sites). I have always
wondered where the town hid their sites, and I can now say I found two
of them!
I was here for the day with the kids and happend to drive up Main Street on the way to the town's playground and I noticed this odd structure on the top of the building. So, on the way back from the playground, I stopped and took some photos and confirmed the site.
No, not just one wireless carrier is here, but two!
US
Cellular and CIngular.
The location itself is at 76 Main Street in a two apartment building. The first photo shows a view of it from Main Street looking South East (almost towards Pac Monadnock). This site provides great coverage for the downtown area and Rt 101 near downtown, but to the North or West, it really does not provide much distance coverage - only coverage to the immediate neighborhoods due to it being at about ground level for those directions.
2nd photo shows the tower from the west side parking lot.
3rd, 4th, and 5th photos show the back side of the building where you can see the cables running from the basement up along the side of the building to the base of the tower at the roofline. If you look closely, you can see a GPS antenna at the base of the tower structure.
Photos 6 and 7 show the power meters. You can see the US Cellular and Cingular names on two of the many power meters.
