They could be used as sattellite callibration maybe-They look similar to lines which criss cross part of the Nevada desert,which is also a military zone and I seem to remember reading on ATS that those were something to do with the tuning/callibaration of sattellites in space.

Several residents claim to hear the "Taos Hum": a low, grumbling noise on the threshold of audibility.

Great find! S&F for you!
OK, maybe I am way out in left field (I stay there a lot ) but in reading through the links you provided I noticed something.
I found the below quote from this link

I know that there have been quite a few threads lately about different people in different areas hearing strange sounds. I wonder if they are somehow related? Just a thought...edit on 5/12/1313 by Martin75 because: spelling

Anytime something like this comes up, always someone who says "aliens". Never taking in the fact that it could be manmade and that at some point human civilzation could have been more advanced than we are now until a cataclysm happened.

Exactly...my point.
Where are the people that constructed these things??? These things had to be a major effort..]

They would only be a major effort if you don't know how easily it can be done have a look here it's not rocket science and can be achieved with the simplest of tools!
The link below shows how to set out and measure over flat and rough terrain it's simple when you know how.
ftp.fao.org...
So the actual method of setting out a STRAIGHT line over even very rough terrain and for vast distances is not the hard part.

I don't think I agree with you. The methodology described in the link you provided is of the garden hose variety. What you're seeing in that aerial image are dead straight 'lines' that are tens of miles long, some 100ft broad and over hills and valleys.
If you insist that these were made according to the method employed in your link, then how about these lines in Nazca?
You can't make these with ropes, chains, pacing with a passometer or pedometer and so on. That would have taken scores of years to make a 100 ft broad straight 'line' over undulating terrain tens of miles long! And then, for what purpose?

I am commenting on the mysterious lines. First, the ELF is not only used by the military, I am in the mineral exploration business, and we use the same frequency in a survey called VLF, or Very Low Frequency. It uses the ELF/VLF station in Wash. The lines are all over northern North America, from Alaska, the Yukon, Nwt, Nunavut, to Quebec. They are cut lines for geophsical surveys, or for oil/gas exploration. The thin ones are cut using chainsaws, and form a grid pattern, to get a balanced section of land. IP (induced polarization) is one of the surves used on the cut lines, where they lay a few km of wire on the ground, pump electricity into the bedrock and test for ore bodies. When they find an interesting target, they may cut more lines at different angles. The wide lines are often done by bulldozer, and with the help of line cutters (guys with chainsaws). But I am still wondering about that blacked out area on the AK/YT border. It's a no fly zone: we were crossing it with helicopter and were told to go around. Weird... Cheers, Mike
