A friend of mine just took a picture of this thing on top of a old Sheriff recon vehicle converted to a motorhome. He is in southern oregon right now. Is this thing a joke?
Anyone can answer...

Ah, Mystic antennalogy!
One times low band UHF antenna, a triplette of VHF quarter wave whips, and a 800 Mhz trunking antenna, guessing from the lengths. All cleverly burried in cheap PVC pipe so they dont corrode in the rain, and you can wash other stuff off them in case of global war. The white oblong on the roof is usually used on transit busses with horizontal polarization, but I have no guess on which band.
Yes, I have a ham license.. I'm not so proud to admit it any more.
FleCom,
Your thoughts on my Antennaology?
The thing they are on looks like a pivoting lift like is on cheapskate TV remote trucks..
Now if I could just fix my project at work...

so it is like a doomsday sort of com vehicle?
he says it is humming either fans or transformers.
I told him to grab a beer and knock on his door.
he said it is facing south west basically on the ocean.
My kind of rig.

Well, its a wanna be doomsday sort of com vehicle, with a lot of parts from the RV dealers...
If the antennas are not up higher, its not comming well at those frequencies.
I think you have found your local addicted ham radio operator, they like to be cheap, and they like pretending.
The sicker WANNABE ones tend to buy such old vehicles.
The sheriffs usually have lights and a camera up with the antennas, so thats why I say wannabe..

Is that a di-pole attempt hanging from the tree?

Laser (the acronym derived from Light Amplification by Stimulated Emissions of Radiation) is a spectacular manifestation of this process. It is a source which emits a kind of light of unrivaled purity and intensity not found in any of the previously known sources of radiation. - Lasers & Non-Linear Optics, B.B. Laud.

crap... you guys found me.
suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.
Needs moar photons
the PVC could be antennas in there... would have to be 1/2 wave antennas since they would have no ground plane... very bizzare
the crazy shit in the middle looks like some microwave stuff, looks like theres a bit of wave-guide flange stuff, cant really tell?
there also looks to be some kind of wire antenna going up to the trees, I would say probably a hamtard setup of some kind, but without better pictures it would just be guessing

No no, it's a fake Federal Agent falsely representing Photonlexicon, performing unannounced laser show inspections. Those "antenna" are unvarianced lazer detektors.
