There are a number of broadcasters there, as well as the
usual LMR and Cell companies, and a CATV headend.

Nope, our army.  

The site is next door to a highly classified US Army 
communications annex, and the access road is shared by all.

I believe the site also has a permanent flight 
restriction over it also.  

I sort of suspect that the military acutally likes
us going on the mountain, it gives their troops
something to do.  Full vehicle search much of
the time!
