That's what I thought, but was not sure. I'm about 10 miles south of that spot. There were a few Large Antenna south of Oakland along the east-side of the Nimitz : All were/are Licensed Amateur Radio [Ham] Operators : There were/are no C/C/S/F Transmitters directly along the Nimitz and visable from Nimitz from Oakland to San Jose -afaik- from the 1960s ~ now The Alameda County Facility was in the San Leandro Hills and the old Nike Radar/Missile Base around Cabot Road; after that is Mission Peak. ~ RHF * . I know about each of these installations; I guess I got the impression - perhaps wrongly - that Dave's big antenna was quite near the Nimitz as opposed to far up in the hills (which would put them nearer the MacArthur Freeway). Right now, Wiedeman Hill, a few spots on Sunol Ridge and Mount Allison/ Monument Peak have large antenna installations, although none are large log-periodic. *Mostly public service and commercial TV/FM/ Microwave/cell repeaters. My own neighborhood in San Lorenzo has quite a few large amateur antennas, but none especially visible from any freeway. It could be a global geophysical company, oil explorations, etc. They use HF antennas as well. I'm almost 100% it's between the Berkeley marina and the NUMMI plant somewhere, directly East of the freeway. No National Guard Armory? Nuttin? - I have dashboard cam photos somewhere. Like to see it when you find it. |
