Before I could get a yahoogroup archiver
working I wanted to save a set
of photos uploaded to the LUT_group on yahoo groups. A member knew the
president or vp of the construction company who dismantled the last
Launch Umbilical Tower used for the Apollo launches. There was an
attempt to have it preserved in its entirety, all 600 tons, and the
original group tried its best. The white room and some portions were
incorporated into the Saturn exhibit @ KSC.
No crawler has been dismantled. Both were upgraded by the Shuttle
program, and I doubt they are going to be dismantled. Nasa still has
plans which will require them if they can ever get back on track.
The group is now devoted to a very serious group of modelers who have a
lot of the actual plans for the LUT digitized and in photo albums on the
groups photo section.
Because of the nature of Yahoo now days, I wanted to archive that and
another historical group, the PBY group which is composed of WW2
veterans who flew Consolidated PBY seaplanes, and still deal with them.

I have to ask.. is that the Saturn-V/Apollo transporter/gantry being
dismantled?
I see 1983 on a calendar in one photo >> BAUDOT TELETYPE OPTION
I have a tape I have deciphered which my Uncle Bill put in a letter
to home during his service. I will point you all at my public folder
on dropbox

in rtty-tape folder. I had my cousin (his daughter) scan it in
sections (was the best I could do). I took those scans and converted
it to 5 level information and then hunted for codes that made the
most sense.
