Boeing has a contract with Homeland Security to install an integrated system of sensors on the border called SBInet. Oh my.

I've purchased towers, sensors, and antenna systems like this in the past. I'd have cancelled the whole damn project just because it looks like a cluster of parts stuck up there on the top of the tower with no system integration.
