Article Text Copied
The text in this article as of January 2006 was copied from this National Park Service web site. I assume the NPS website is not copyrighted, but the article should state its source. (The source is, however, noted less prominently in the page history) --Blainster 20:48, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Shouldn't this be an article on horn antennas in general and not the Holmdel horn antenna specifically?58.165.235.188 (talk) 08:54, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Rename to Holmdel Horn Antenna or similar?
This article title is inappropriately generic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.113.195.40 (talk) 09:16, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I concur. I came here looking for details on horn antennas, not a particular notable example with no technical information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktims (talk • contribs) 23:27, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
