   I'm a little confused. Surely my ranch in Phoenix   
   is in the BEZ. I'm not getting "ray'd".   
      
   Is the photo listed above the tower INSIDE the   
   boundary that you see at bearing 150 from   
   the coordinates given above?   
      
   I guess what confuses me is that the waypoint is   
   called "tower150". There's obviously not a tower   
   at that waypoint. So does the naming scheme mean   
   "from this waypoint, there is a tower at bearing 150"?   
      
   If so, then I guess I don't get the name of "016".   
   I also don't get the name of "017"   
      
   I don't see anything on GE at waypoint "016" or "017".   
      
   Have I got you as confused as I am?
