Radio Tower Best Use, Timing, And Extraction Value
The real Radio Tower question is simple: does your run want to become visible right now? The tower is where extraction actually starts, which means it also starts the loud, readable final phase that other players can punish. Voyage is more forgiving because exits stay easier to use. Storm Dive is harsher because tower timing comes later and a bad tower choice can waste the whole run.
Where To Find Or Use Radio Tower In SAND Raiders of Sophie
Find an active extraction tower, climb to the radio console, and call evac from there. Nearby exits show a white door icon on the map, and the tower becomes the object that starts the final pickup phase.

Radio Tower Timing, Best Use, And Limits
Radio Tower Why It Matters
A tower is not just a marker. It is the moment your run becomes visible, timed, and punishable.
Radio Tower Storm Dive Pressure
Storm Dive punishes one-exit thinking. Towers open later, can become unavailable after use, and force you to plan a second answer before the first one fails.
