      Yes 101.5 is a great classic rock station. This is not their only transmitter. They have at least 2 others.

      Wow, there's a crazy amount of stuff on that tower!
      (Click on it twice for the fully zoomed size.)

      Any idea what that vertical red/white bar is about half way down?

      I have no idea what that antenna is for. Someone else might be able to figure it out.

      FAA compliance. The entire tower is painted red and white.

      I think he means there is a rather large antenna of some sort on the pole, that is also painted red and white. It is just under "UNICEL TDMA AMPS"

      Yes, it is large and attached to the side of the tower facing us.

      Not knowing the azimuth it's either a TV or FM radio antenna. Though I'm leaning towards the TV station, particularly WVER.
