Video: Watch the high-up construction of the new antenna tower for The Eagle

Listeners of The Eagle 95.3 and 101.1 Rocks the 80s may soon notice better signal from the rock station.

A new tower and antenna are being installed at the transmitter site in Xenia. Construction of the project, which was a year in the making, got underway in late January and is expected to be completed before the end of February.

SKY7 captured video of the workers as they added a segment to the tower this week.
