The original "Steve's BC Cellular Site" was located at http://www.geocities.com/rainforest/3264/cellular.htm and was set up on April 21st, 1998. This was in response to others asking me about the cellular phone I had purchased in December 1997 and the establishment of many new and interesting structures in the Victoria area. On the cell pictures pages under Microcell Connexions you will find the Glidden Road tower site that first got me really interested in how cell phones worked based on a hunch of what this structure was for. At that point I realized that Microcell (Fido's parent company) was trying to place a bunch of new sites in Victoria and they were being met with great protest from residents who didn't want towers in their backyards.

No changes were recorded prior to September '98, mainly because the site went through a number of updates and the readership was low. I think there was one day in May '98 were I got a whole one hit during the day. After the Times-Colonist article (see the media section), I received a new site record of 53 hits in one day.
