Having trouble finding the perfect Christmas gift to give to that weird

Having trouble finding the perfect Christmas gift to give to that weird uncle who lives in a basement and plays on a ham radio all day? How about twelve months worth of sexy radio tower photographs arranged into an easy-to-leave-blank calendar? Still not sold? What if we told you the November pinup was of none other than King County’s own Cougar Mountain towers?The calendar in being put out by Fybush Media, which is run by lifelong broadcasting nerd Scott Fybush.It even got a plug on the Rachel Maddow Blog as part of her “Geek gift guide.” Here’s the Cougar Mountain photo, taken from nearby Tiger Mountain looking west. The towers pictured broadcast the stations: KPLZ 101.5 FM, KUBE 93.3 FM, KJR-FM 95.7 FM, KCMS 105.3 FM and KRWM 106.9 FM.Note the dramatic use of empty space.Fybush tells Seattle Weekly that while his clientele isn’t 100 percent broadcast technicians and radio nerds, it’s damn pretty close. “We’ve got a few orders from people whose names I don’t recognize. But the good, solid clientele is radio tower engineers,” he says. “(Radio towers) are a whole layer of infrastructure that not everyone thinks about. The signal gets to your speakers somehow. There’s also a lot of history behind these sites.”Here’s a link to Fybush’s thorough dissemination of his Cougar and Tiger Mountain trips, including more radio geek speak than you may have ever thought possible.
