Every spring, I am amazed by the amount of pollen trapped by the cooling air
intake filter of a broadcast transmitter I look after.

This continues thru the summer, the color changes with month or season, and
bugs are added, but as long as the air is moving thru it, it does the job.
I have to change the filter media at least 3 times every summer, and once in
fall and spring.
