FWT, Inc.
 PROFILE
Cleverly hidden antennas from FWT are not direct connections to God. The company makes communications antenna towers disguised as church steeples, trees (TREE-CELL), and flagpoles. Other products include monopoles, equipment shelters, antenna arrays, and Communication-Sites on Wheels (COWs), which combine antennas and temporary power supplies in mobile enclosures such as trucks and trailers. FWT is recovering from a troubled recent history. In 1999 founder Tommy Moore's three sons bought back two-thirds of FWT from Baker Capital, which had installed new management and led the company into bankruptcy in 1997. Outside bondholders own the remaining third of the company, which is working to rebuild its customer base.
