The site is less than 0.25 mile from a PacTel cellular antenna. Today I finally verified that the telephone was cellular; I first noticed it about mid May. Possibly I've glimpsed others; mostly I concentrate on traffic and driving, but I'll keep an eye out. For those others whose past-life sins condemn them to commuting on the San-Diego freeway, this particular phone is on the south-bound side in the Sepulveda-pass area, less than 0.25 mile north of the Moraga on ramp; its ID is SD 423 or 425.
