How do you get the guy in front of the elevator in lavender town radio tower?

There is not an upstairs. Nope, no cheat will make the security guard move, not because of what he said, Team Rocket has Nothing to do with it. But hey, visit anyway- once getting the Power Plant Problem sorted. Go up to an old man he will give you a Radio Card... That works in Kanto!

Tune in to That Town, These People cos they will not just do Johto towns now, but kanto towns too. :D
