Awesome stuff Craig. Thanks for sharing. Hard to believe it will be 22 years come December that this footage was taken. Time goes too quick. Cheers mate. 👍

I live only 9km from the Mt Dandenong transmitter site. Unfortunately I was working when this upgrade was done. Thanks for the vision. VK3KZ 73’s

Thanks so much for posting this great vision!

Wow. I remember when the Artarmon and Chatswood TV towers were being upgraded back in 1999. I remember our TV reception was really bad for a while that year.

That is some precision sky crane flying there. Thanks for the cool vid Craig :)

Amazing video

[@makarov138]

Whoever that chopper pilot is, he's got balls the size of watermelons!! Well done Sir!

[@demolitiondavedrillandblast]

Great video, has anybody noticed that he Ch7 tower has a slight lean toward Melbourne?

[@butchmcbride6974]

Awesome pilot!

[@jakedillingham]

Is it possible that someone can explain to me what I am looking at, at 08:45 and 08:58. Cheers

[@speno80]

At 08:45 is the top section of the tower showing the interface steelwork. The main body of the antenna in the next shot (08:50) sits down into the “cup” that you can see. At 08:58 is the co-pilot, he’s sat pretty much over the load carried by the helicopter.

Wouldn't want to be that helicopter pilot.

Back when Victoria wasn’t a nany state 🤣

Ok.
