http://www.jamesburgearthstation.com - website from real estate agent 
handling the sale.. lots of good information

http://www.jamesburgdish.org - website from the guys restoring and using it.

It's in a very pretty area of the coastal hills near Carmel.  When it 
says 25 miles from Carmel, that's along a 1.5 lane road that winds 
through the trees and valleys, and it's going to take the better part of 
hour to get there.  Likewise, coming from the 101 from King City.

I don't know if it would be all that wonderful a ham site.  It's down in 
the bottom of the valley with fairly high hills on either side. 
Elevation at the site is about 1000 ft and the hills around it are about 
2000 ft high.  The valley is less than a mile wide.

The earth station is a bit north east of the street address and quite 
obvious in the aerial photo. Antenna is north of building.
