Radio Tower Location

To locate the Radio Tower in Humanitz, spawn into the game and open the Former Survivor Letter inside your inventory. This will mark the Tower’s location on your map, highlighted by a green circle, as shown in the image above. Once you’ve located it, all you need to do is make your way to it.
However, beware, since you’ll face hordes of zeeks and zombie dogs on your journey ahead. Zeeks are easy to avoid thanks to their slow mobility, but zombie dogs can catch up to you pretty quickly. So avoid the zeeks, and take care of the zombie dogs to clear the path ahead. It’s best if you use a car or a horse to avoid the hordes entirely.
At the Tower, you’ll face another horde of zeeks behind the military blockade. At the bottom of the Tower, you’ll encounter a special type of zeek, surrounded by green smoke. These zeeks can inflict poison damage and deplete your health over time if you’re not careful.
Defeat them, and move away as soon as you can, since their corpse leave a green toxic puddle, which deals poisonous damage when stepped on. Wait for the green puddle to dissipate, then make your way to the Radio Tower. Next, you need to repair the Tower to use it effectively.
