Description: Photo of the 85 foot antenna tower that was erected on top of the L.A. Transit Lines building. From this tower directions will be flashed to mobile units which will be equipped with two-way short wave radio sets. This means that the Los Angeles yellow car lines will be radio controlled and thereby service will be speeded up. The transmitting system is being constructed by the General Electric Company.
