Derek,
Your VOR explanation makes sense as there shouldnt be an array of antennas for navigation, but I'm not expert. If you get a chance sometime could you
post the pic of the VOR site in Calverton?
That FAA site you found is interesting. So you think it's a phased array radar station huh? Do you have any idea what would that be used for? Isn't
phased array radar used in weather prediction?
This is a picture of the paved circular area that I believe was the referenced in the article area where the advanced radar was tested in my last
post.

and here is what I think is the same paved circular area, and it looks like there are 2 of them. I happen to notice that there is a antenna rate next
to those paved circles which might have something to do with the radar testing? I wonder what the heck that white x looking thing is???

I found 2 bunkers just to the west of the SAGE radar tower and the main part of the base. I think these are the artillary bunkers
show here.
What I thought was interesting about this image is the 2 dark objectsthat are on top of them. I can't tell if they are just trees or what, but them
seem almost symetrical? I thought I saw another bunker somewhere, but now I can't find it.

Derek, I have been looking at the paved circular road just south of that L shaped transmitter building we talked about earlier. I have never been out
there and was hoping you could tell me if Old Montauk highway is paved or dirt? reason i ask is it looks dirt in google earth, but that circle appears
to be paved, and I can't figure out why they would go to the trouble to pave a circle? Do you know if you anyone can drive on Old Montauk Highway?
I was also wondering if you know anything about that small neighborhood north of camp hero? The streets show as Madison Hill Drive and then there are
Jefferson and Washington Ave off of it. It appears to be part of camp hero but I can't really tell. Is it the housing for the people there? Also make
sure you check out that oval track looking thing where Madison Hill Dr meets Camp heo rd. What the heck is that thing for?
I was wondering if someone knows what this rectangulr concrete structure is, and if it is above or below ground? It's just east of the SAGE tower and
almost looks like it goes below ground or something?

I had only heard little bits and pieces about Montauk and Tesla and what went on there and never thought much of it. Now that I have read about and
looked at pictures and aerial images I can't really explain why but I think that nore goes on there than meets the eye. After looking at the place in
detail with google earth I get the feeling that there is a fairly extensive underground facility there. I know those bunkers are there, but I think
there is even more that's not as visible.
Something else I wanted to mention was the Wardenclyffe Tesla lab which AFAIK is in Shoreham, NY but I can't find an address for the site or find it
in google earth. I find it interesting that Tesla himself had a lab and a giant wireless tower on Long Island not far from Montauk and Camp hero.
