After sunrise of May 6, 2005 we woke up from a long deep sleep after the exhausting support to the rangers training with noises of wild birds around the Ti Ku station.

radio improvement mission plan was held up during morning coffee, then, map and compass were used to check the exact direction of the radio antenna which to be adjusted as well as other necessary radio equipments preparation that will be installed at the top of the antenna tower.

when the mission's procedure was clear to all personel, Mr. Berm then get all equipments needed put in his cloth bag and wore his safety belt that donated by a member of WFCC , called sign HS0 - ILI , which Mr. Berm have worn it for years in all his antenna missions.

with long experiences and brave, Mr. Berm slowly and steady climbed up to the tower top, then, unlocked the antenna holder and moved it to the other side of the antenna tower pointing to the north.

After affixed the antenna holder to the correct position then adjusted the antenna to the correct direction, rearranged the cable, tied the cable with tapes and plastic tie from top to bottom.

The mission end after 45 minutes passed, it was a new record for Mr. Berm. In Thungyai, there were other 4 rangers who started to learn how to work on the top of antenna tower by joining WFCC radio's missions, but Mr. Berm was the most specialised and experienced from well trained and years of mission.

Mr. Dong, the ranger tested the radio system as soon as Mr. Berm had landed. The radio performance was as expected, not only better radio signal quality among near by radio stations, but also an excellent clear audio both send and receive radio signal between the central radio network station of Thungyai and its radio station. The mission ended with the welcome of Ti Ku radio station to Thungyai radio network system.
