Wullenweber antennas are best known by their military designations. The diameter of the outer ring of elements is only about 400 feet, roughly half the diameter of the Pusher's larger cousins. These antennas are truely majestic and have been dubbed various descriptive names by local inhabitants of nearby civilian communities. Names such as the Dinosaur Cage, Elephant Cage or the Turkey Cage are common. Most sit on sites of around forty acres and have a two story 40 meter square cement operations building in the center of four concentric circles of poles with a diameter of almost a thousand feet.
Poles measure from eight feet to over a hundred feet in height.
Security is always tight at these facilities because they are always involved in intelligence gathering operations or electronic spying. The high band antenna elements are on the outside and the low band are on the inside. There are 40 low band elements folded dipoles that are about 120 feet high. The high band elements are sleeve monopoles and are up about 80 feet. There is generally one high band element for each three degrees of azimuth.
