[R-390] Whazzat? Mystery Antenna in San Jose, CA

[Barry Hauser]

Hi Andy and gang...

It might not be a good idea to run a thread about airport installations 
at this particular time, all things considered (check the breaking news) ;-)

Could it be some kind of ILS thing?  Or have they phased that out.  (ILS 
for glidepath guidance when landing, as I recall.)
