certified tower climber

I have never been a foreman for a tower crew, however I do have experience PIM and line testing while I worked recently for a company (ADT in Columbus, Ohio) which was installing micro sites around the northern ohio market. So I have done it at the top of the tower as a tower hand, and have run the testing devices on the ground also. I also learned how to splice fiber, although it wasn't very often that I did it. Unfortunately, at the time I wasn't able to travel due to a family member being hospitalized, so was only with them for a few months (which is why I don't have it listed on my resume.
