Broadcast tower LP8 is a broadcast tower in the Capital Wasteland in the year 2277. It is located northeast of Montgomery County Reservoir and south of Oasis.[1]

Layout[]

There's a radio antenna and a generator enclosed behind a metal fence. With the latter's switch the tower can be turned on to emit Signal Echo Foxtrot.

Sealed cistern[]

East of the tower is a sealed cistern, just over the cliff face, which can be entered via a sewer entrance. Inside a ham radio can be found which allows to turn off the broadcast.

Notable loot[]

  • Inside the sewer chamber, there is a Big Book of Science and a locked safe (easy) which will contain caps, and (level-dependent) may also contain 1-2 10mm pistols and corresponding ammunition, a chem, pre-War money and a Stealth Boy.
  • This is a Group A random encounter location. The exact spot is on the north-northwest corner of the gate that surrounds the broadcast tower, and will be triggered within a radius of approximately 20 – 25 running strides.

Appearances[]

Broadcast tower LP8 appears only in Fallout 3.

    GENERAL NOTES
    Broadcast Tower LP8 is southwest of the monorail and freeway skeletons and overlooks the reservoir with Paradise Falls in the distance. Activate the electrical switch, and triangulate the signal to a Sealed Cistern entrance below, to the northeast."
