Dear Stefan, LF= Group,

See also the Omega antenna at Haiku, Hawaii, of which there are many pictu= res at http://ww= w.haikuvalley.com/

I visited the VLF transmitting site at Criggion once. The transmitter buil= ding was at the bottom of a cliff a few hundred metres high. The public ro= ad actually ran underneath the antenna top loading, which was supported by= several masts on one side and anchored to the cliff on the other. Unfortu= nately it has now been demolished.


Cheers, Jim Moritz
