This is the latest contraption from the "Skunk Works" located in the Shack of Chris - KF4WNB. He, along with Chris - KD4MPN, re-discomboobalated an old TV antenna resulting in the creature pictured here.
According to KF4WNB, this is a "Fox Hunting" rig. However, it is still unclear if the device is designed to 'hear' the electronic critter or focus a beam of RF radiation on it and smoke it! To say the appearance of this piece of gear is 'strange' would be redundant considering the source of the desgn.
Residents in Chris' neighborhood are reporting numerous instances of spontaneous activation of garage doors and wireless pet collars coinciding with the testing of this piece of equipment . . . hmmm ... although no direct link has been made.
I think a contest is in order to name it. I will prime the pump with my submission:
"Buzzard Catcher"
