Following up on original post (thanks again for interesting stuff!), I
noticed some other sites to the east of PYD, nearer to Groom Lake:
Several tall masts and unidentified things at 37.2427 N, 115.8919 W.
A radar at 37.2288 N, 115.8823 W.
Unidentified things at 37.2422 N, 115.8659 W.
Anybody know what they are?
n37.2427 w115.8919 is interesting. However, the ndbs thus far are of
the wire between the pole style.
Now
n37.2422 w115.8659 is probably a radar threat. It is very typical
that these are mounted on small manmade hills. I'm not totally sure
why they do this, but my guess is this is due to the threats being
stripped off of the full blown weapons system. That is, the radar
would be higher if the complete weapon system were present. The other
guess is they put the dishes higher to keep ground personnel out of
the emitter path.
Check out site-4:
