Does anyone know what this radio site is? You can see it up on the bluff while driving down W Tenmile Creek Rd. in Boise. Consists of quite a few yagis which are HF or VHF-LO at best.

The FCC ULS geographic search isn't working for me and I don't see anything in the RR database for it.
43 deg, 28' 49.2" N
116 deg, 15' 13.7" W

Just wondering!

Thanks for the replies. It looks very utilitarian from a distance so I'm wondering if it might be government or military related. I might try to get closer the next time I'm in the area.

Is this page working for anyone? (Wondering if its just me) I'm trying to search by Coordinates but it always returns an error.
Application Search - Geographic Application Search

For something like that you would probably want to use the license search instead of application search.

Both of those sites sometimes time out if you search for something the wrong way.

Earlier today I searched a 1 mile radius of that place and there were no FCC licenses for 2-30 MHz so it is probably federal.
