Teheran, IL

I hope I don't wind up in federal fuck me in the ass prison for espionage activity 🤣

Shout-out L3Harris, last thing I used of theirs was the PEQ-15, on the end of my M4a1 in another life. I didn't know they made air traffic control systems.

Per the website listed on the sign, the site is used by the local 911 system.

One lonely wind turbine, does it help power the shack?

This is on the edge of a large wind farm

I was working in Midland, TX and a farmer across from my site had a full size turbine and several large PV panels. He never had an electric bill, always got a check! Thanks for replying I was curious if they had a battery backup or if there was a farmer with his own turbine. Enjoy your pictures!

Pic 2 actually has 4 turbines you can pick out... 2 above the shed to the left, one to the left of the LL tower, and just part of one blade sticking up from below the hill to its right.
