Wonder how much equipment still remains.   Rumor has it the air force never stopped dismantling and removing electronics.


Still,  a lot to be learned from that facility methinks

Read the article Shane....   Says old equipment was removed and current tech was left or returned.....   They think.

So it sounds like initially all they have now is a 30 acre antenna farm.
