The image below is a satellite picture courtesy of Google of the original LBI DX site. The black rectangle in the upper part of the image is the seafront building of the Drifting Sands Motel; it was refurbished in 2004, but the photo shows the buildings as they looked for the first 3 years of the DXpedition. The two black lines represent the North and South-running BUTS (beverage under the sand) or BOG (beverage on the ground) antennas.
