If you go to
37°49'33.86"N 116° 1'59.70"W
on Google Earth on the latest 2016 imagery, you can see a small structure. It sort of looks like a helicopter. However I'm sure it is the odd crank up tower I encountered in 2015.

This is in free territory. The small sand pit of sorts nearby is where a F-15 crashed.

Looking for this old crash site is how we wandered into the crank up tower. The tower is mobile, so I doubt they left it there an entire year. Probably the location is useful for whatever they use it for, that is they set up there often.

Most antennas are labeled, but you will generally need a 300 to 400mm telephoto lens to get a decent image.
A lot of this what looks like cellular but is military is 3.5GHz.
