A structure built from scavenged metal and scrap, intended to maintain communication in the failing city. It soon became an important waypoint on the road between House Camp and the Solars, serving as a safe haven. Currently abandoned after multiple attacks from the Moon Cult.
In-game journal
The Improvised Radio Tower is an exploration zone on the Permafrost map. It was put together from salvaged parts to keep radio contact going as the city fell apart, and it grew into a sheltered stop for people travelling between House Camp and the Solars. Repeated raids by the Moon Cult drove everyone out, and it now stands abandoned.
Around the tower you can search 9 frozen bodies, 3 lockers, 2 military crates, 2 toolboxes and a medical supply box. For mining, there are 16 rock boulders, 9 coal boulders, 7 flint, 6 copper and 2 gold boulders nearby. A Scrap Pickaxe and a Buria can be picked up in the area.
The main quest Tower of Finn sends you to the top of the tower to find Finn. The closest fast travel post is Fast Travel: Church, about 260 m away in a straight line, and Sonnenberg's Clinic, the nearest safe zone, is about 200 m off. The Water Tower is about 100 m away.
