It was. Thinking this might be an optical illusion, engineers made a test with Instruments from a neighboring tower. The beacon was found to lean not to the north but to the south.

Puzzled, the engineers made another test the next day, from a different angle. This time the beacon pole was leaning west. Every test showed a change. Then the discovery was made that the heat of the sun on whichever side it was shining, caused a 4-inch expansion of the metal, bending the pole out of plumb.
