Images of the HSV-7 tower appear very few, having Googled extensively. I'm sure that archive photos are in a vault somewhere. As an engineer with HSV-7, I had to climb this tower regularly in order to re-align the microwave dishes. My canary yellow FJ Holden would be in the car park somewhere. — Posted 10 years ago
