Re: What is it.
Is that a guess or for sure? That sort of thing I would expect to be carried on a truck.
It's certainly the right shape, though. I just saw an episode on those on "How It's Made" ...

1. Sleeves of some kind for future power lines/phone lines/CATV/FTTH/FTTN.
2. Directional microwave antennae with built-in repeaters. Someone is using microwave frequencies for some type of remote sensing, remote control or other data transfer.
3. Did you check for free wi-fi using Netstumbler? |

There are about a dozen on my street, they seem to be random. Sometimes there are two or three poles in a row with them. They are on Todd Road in Wolcott CT and some of todd's side streets. |

It's an AT&T Super Spy Scope. Instead of the annoying email surveys they are sending out, they train the camera on your house and take snapshots of telecommunication activities within the domicile.

| Hello All,
A few months ago they put new taller telephone poles on our street. I noticed these things and was wondering what they are for.
