I seem to remember the radials were many, many miles long in some cases
laid on the snow surface."


Gedas, long ago I read about a shortwave broadcast station somewhere in
southern Africa that did the same thing. Superlong radials in one
direction. I've tried more than once to find a reference to the original
article I read or to the station, but I've never been successful.
