One DONT see listed is the (actually there are 2 of em!) Over-the Horizion radar antennas constructed about 30 miles south of Tule Lake , Ca, and looks to be about 20 MHz freq wise! Tho shut down, these are still mothballed, and are about 3/4 MILE LONG array of Rohn tower sections, every (again, as observed, not measured-- Wackenhut the security outfit, would NOT be amused if CLOSELY inspected!) , spaced about every 15-20 feet, this on a surface of chicken wire/ fenceing material , on the ground surface, about 800 - 1000 foot deep, and, a backstop, again guetimate, , about 10-15 foot high! aimed at Russia! Would be interesting to try one of these out, sometime (Work all Oblisks, QRP??) sometime, but, might not have the military very happy with you !! Jim NN7K

Jim, are there any beverage style antennas at the site there which would
be used for reception of the reflected return signals?

Thanks!
