THE BIG KNOB

THE BIG KNOB FIRE TOWER IS LOCATED BETWEEN GATE CITY, VA
AND HILTONS, VA, JUST ACROSS THE STATE LINE FROM KINGSPORT,
TN. THIS TOWER IS NOW PRIVATELY OWNED, AND IS STILL IN VERY
GOOD SHAPE. WE ACTUALLY HAVE OUR AMATEUR (HAM) RADIO
FIELD DAY FROM THIS TOWER SITE. IT IS A NICE SITE TO VISIT,
ALTHOUGH YOU MUST HAVE PERMISSION FROM THE LANDOWNER.
