I have installed wireless IP cameras at my house in the mountains with Blue Iris software to allow 24/7 monitoring of the premises. This system has built-in motion sensors and night vision. When the motion sensor is tripped, two pictures are sent to my email account. A short video is also made and recorded. Without going into details, this house is in a very remote location with few people in the immediate vicinity. However, anyone doing surveillance within the radius of one mile would be noticed and reported.
The cameras are inconspicuous but effective as shown here. The individual in the first picture had already walked up the stairs to my second story, knocked on the front door and received no reply. He then went to the side of the house and checked the interior of the home as seen in the second picture.
Based on the time stamps, this individual went back to his vehicle and came back ten minutes later with what appears to be a computer and radio antenna.
He then sets up at the rear of the house for what I believe was the alignment of a long distance, parabolic antenna. This location of the alignment is the only part of the house where it would be practical for monitoring due to the terrain. Also, the monitoring point is across a valley two miles away but conveniently across state lines.
I know that no one entered my home but this incident pointed out some weak points in my security by showing the need for additional cameras (already purchased). It also pointed out the necessity to implement and refine security measures now on a larger scale. But even more important, it shows that no location is safe or should be considered safe in the future.
I sent these pictures to several individuals for their opinions prior to writing this article since I did not want to jump to any conclusions and wanted to solicit other possible explanations for this "visit". One individual stated that this man "can't be a three letter agency and be so inept", he did not say anything about a five letter agency.
I had hoped that this type of activity would have stopped after my IRS harassment was closed by filing a court case against them in 2010.
Will we regain our country in the future? In the sixth book of the 299 Days series, Glen Tate wrote something that has given me more hope than anything else: the people left in government are incompetent and have no conviction. As evidenced by these pictures.
Five letter agency? Have they used up all the three and four letter combinations already? Geeee! We are really in deeep doooo-doooo.
Too bad you did not shoot him!
I notice you didn’t install claymore’s.
Any reason why not?
LOL
Must be nice. You know he’s bragging, now don’t you?
BATFE - Bureau of A##holes Transvestites, Faggots and Effeminates
This is frightening and infuriating!
I would add controlled detonation devices, or at least some flash-bangs, that could be controlled remotely from a pad or other monitoring device.
Look at his left hand hanging down out of sight from the door(second pic).Notice his hand is clenched.To me that is a cops’ stance.
Any idea what he was doing with that parabolic antenna?
This is a bit weird.
I couldn’t afford to rig a toy GI Joe or Barbie camera on my place. LOL

Get a canine beast that understands his ground. This guy wouldn’t have been able to get that close.
Do you have DISH TV at the house now?...: )
As someone that has setup surveillance / spy equipment for years that doesn’t look like standard protocol to me. They would check for cameras and to see if you were home first before engaging in blackop type tactics.
^ one of the ways they can check to see if you are home is by using a sales call pretext. If that doesnt work they can ping our cellphone to see where it’s at then do a follow-up check with another source to confirm you are t that location (as in call your place of employment to see if you are there).
The NSA already has him under surveillance! Just like they do the rest of us. If they want to target him, they'll do it from a remote server. They aren't going to send Larry the Satellite Guy.
My guess is that he is a contractor for a web service provider going around to all the remote locations around there and testing various homes for signal pickup from selected mountaintop transmitter antennas.
AT&T used to distribute TV here in the metro Atlanta area over L-band freuquencies....just hang the receiver antennas in the tops of trees.
I know there is Hughes Net for remote locations that want satellite internet service but it still is bandwidth limited on the download.
Based on the dish he used, I’d say this was one of those millimeter wave last-mile dishes that are in use everywhere. They operate in the 36-38GHz range. At that frequency bandwidth on data transmission wouldn’t be a problem. Very small beamwidth and high gain. So he might have been seeing if he could pickup a transmit location farther away that provides sector coverage to an area.
Only possible non-spy reason I could think of.
Yes, big time.
Check with the local ham club, better yet, become a ham if you're not and join. Then you'll know what's going on in the area. He may have been just looking for you to ask permission, then went ahead and borrowed your space anyway.
