Looks like HF communications and/or intercept. Most likely US government.
The towers with big arms are big Log-Periodic, rotatable antennas,
probably covering 2-30 Mhz. I've never seen any that big, though.
Near the center of the site, the big diagonal towers surrounding an LP
tower are probably supporting other wire antenna elements. Sort of
reminiscent of the Wullenweber, AN/FLR-9, electrically steered, DF antenna.
Interesting!
