            The 5th District received a grant from Homeland Security to equip all of the hospitals in the area with amateur radio antennas so as to facilitate communications

            between all of the hospitals in the event of an emergency.  Rick KD8BHL and myself KC8OVZ installed this antenna on the main tower at Lakeland Hospital in Niles.
