TAIWAN Kouhu - Hukou Village. Here's a new Panoramio image of a net
style LOG periodic at or near the RTI Kouhu site. I didn't know RTI
utilised any log periodics SW antennas at any of it's sites?? Perhaps this
antenna is used by a different organisation adjacent to the RTI site?? I'm
really not sure - more investigation needed.
Below is the link to the previously seen RTI MW antenna at Kouhu.
