I highly doubt it's worth 100k as scrap. The "6 figures" price tag was to replace it. Maybe they have some way to sell this equipment for its original purpose, but if they are selling it for scrap it'll go for a tiny fraction of what it would be worth in working condition.
also, if the scrapyard suspected it was stolen they probably wouldn't buy it. I bet it's at the bottom of a river somewhere.
Nah Jasper is that kind of place in Alabama where even a stolen 200’ tower can be fenced
