I wish they'd videotape the offenders as they bust 'em. Would be fun to watch.
there's a couple of CB'ers in the L.A. area that better stop using 28.380, they ARE next:blink:

I think you are right. I called it an Adcock array but i think it is an Elephant cage array. The real name for it is a Wullenweber antenna.

Brought back memories of a similar HFDF antenna near Imperial Beach CA. I saw it many times from Interstate 5 when I was down in the San Diego area but never actually visited or was even curious. Looks to be just about 1300 feet in diameter; probably close to the same size as the one in Maryland. According to GE, the Imperial Beach site was decommissioned in 1999.

How far are you from the CBC/RCI Sackville relay station and has it been torn dow? Is there anything going on there nowadays?
RCI Sackville is at 45°53'35.46" N 64°19'20.71" W and my house is at 45°02'37.97" N 64°11'28.76" W. It is only about 60 miles as the crow flies but is a 2 1/2 hour drive because of the way you have to go. I was up that way past the site in mid-August and at that point nothing was done. Everything was still intact but it was not on the air. I suspect it will be dismantled in the future.
