We have an array of eclectic-ron-ic injun ears, ex BBC engineers, physicists, etc there.
As far as I am concerned once I post to a list with public archives (or even otherwise) I am putting my message in the public domain so..yes
Hopefully they might come up with a better answer than my guesswork :)
No problem at all as far as I'm concerned! I take exactly the same view of such things as Wayne does. Ted.
A digest of (on-topic) posts from The Shed:
Anyone here any idea?
Checking where to put the next cellphone mast? Or checking reception from existing masts? The quoted aerial size matches the external cellphone aerials I've seen, more or less. It *could* be a check for the best place to install a differential GPS station to help the GPS located agricultural machinery they've been using recently. An outside chance is that one of the houses in the road is suspected of hosting a pirate radio or TV station. A decent picture of the car would help, of course....

Possibly doing a site survey and recording so that the farmer can buy himself one of those swanky GPS controlled tractors, set that running about, so to spend more time shooting rabbits while drinking Guinness.

Whatever, seems a good reason to shoot them. ________________________________________________________ On 2010-05-19, Rusty Hinge <rusty.hinge@foobar.girolle.co.uk> wrote:

Sorry to be completely off-topic, but there's quite a few of you who are savvy in rare areas; plus, you're local!
Scenario: At times during the last few days I've seen a low-slung white car/van driving around. It has "Anglian WILLHIRE" on the sides. On the roof is mounted a blackish flat plate, /snip/
Anglian WILLHIRE is just rent-a-van, so I assume someone rented it to put the "thing" on. E. ________________________________________________________ That's it for now, but more may emerge as Sheddi get switched-on. -- Tony Anson www.girolle.co.uk/
