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.
Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare |

Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned |
