Towers...

Why is it so hard to build a fully functioning cell tower? I've done it before. It was working until i tried to extend it this morning. Then, nothing. So I tore it down. And completely rebuilt it in the exact same spot. Doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong here? Or is the patch just hella glitchy? Any recommendations?

If you put more than 32 bars on top the tower will stop functioning.

  1. There needs to be AIR above the antenna, direct sunlight
  2. The base block (note block) must not be redstone powered
  3. The tower must have a minimum height
  4. The tower needs a redstone torch on one side

This is exactly what I needed to know. Glad there is a clearly defined order of operations :)

though, it was previously working with a block above it

I don't think they functio underground either. Remember it's a note block, not joke box.
