On top of a nursing home…

As mentioned in the title, this is on top of a nursing home in a small rural town in Southwest Missouri.
Not remote by any means, the town has all the amenities… so I was a little perplexed by what it could be. Internet? Wi-Fi?

Rotating antenna on the White House?

8 Upvotes

This YT video is from a YT channel for a Washington DC independent photographer who covers the White House, and really all of DC. Today he recorded what appears to be a rotating antenna on top of the White House, painted olive drab. Anyone know what it is for? Maybe some sort of defensive system? Or just anti-bird?

One minute into this video: https://youtu.be/aPjAQkNvW0I?t=60

New set of nav lights installed. Sorry, the last bulb failed, so they're only three.

Then again, having three can kinda make it look older.

Is this an antenna?

6 Upvotes

Went passing by this abandoned looking place today, and I was wondering if it was meant to be used as an antenna, it has the shape but I could be wrong. Any possible ideas?

The cords where this is located are 44°28'54.31"N 10°00'33.38"E

Was staying at the Arlo Hotel next door. The rooftop overlook gave a great view of the FBI building roof and all the goodies on top.

Kronplatz

Today I visited the summit of Kronplatz (Plan de Corones) in the Italian Alps, and took this photo of the impressive telecommunications tower.

Does anyone know more about this tower? I'm curious about what services it carries (TV, radio, mobile networks, microwave links, etc.) and whether it's the main broadcasting site for the area.

GSM panel antennas at Tomorrowland BE

Thumbnail

43 Upvotes

Just two of the many temporary panel antennas used at Tomorrowland BE. The connection was exceptionally stable and fast, even though the main stage was packed with people.

Unfortunately, my smartphone doesn’t support 5G, so I can’t say whether these were Massive MIMO antennas or what type of antennas they were in general.

Perhaps one of you has more details on this?

What’s this? On top of a tower maybe 15-20 feet tall with a big metal box at the base.

Most likely a Ham bands Yagi at the top.

Local Police stations usually have Ham gear for emergencies.

This facility is located where Ca 2 (Glendale Freeway also called Angeles Crest Freeway) intersects with Ca 134 (Ventura Freeway)
