The Main T was located on the Main Divide road 3 miles North of Highway 74, this transmitter was the one signaling with the Alien Voice message. I was
using 20 watts into a 4 element yagi pointed at Mount Baldy. The power output was adjusted throughout the hunt.

T-2 was a 300 mw Alinco with a PicCon controller. This transmitter was placed on a turnout .9 miles from the main T, the turnout had a commanding
view of Lake "Smell-Some-More".

It was my hope that the hunters would be drawn directly towards me into trying many of the dirt roads and box canyons that were in the line of sight
of the Main T. The location had the desired effect as hunters spent considerable time poking around Horse Thief Canyon. The Winners were the
only team to actually drive up El Cariso Trail all the way to the top, which incidentally was the only shortcut to the Main T.
