Forest service seeks equipment thieves across East Texas forests
The U S Forest Service offers a reward for information leading to arrests and convictions in thefts of radio relay equipment from the National Forests in Texas. John H Courtenay notes electronic components have disappeared at a high rate across Angelina Sabine Davy Crockett and Sam Houston forests. The network spans about 175 square miles with stations from Lufkin and serves daily operations including search and rescue. Over four months roughly four thousand dollars of radio gear has been stolen.
