[BARC-List] Yagi on Verizon CO in Natick?

Rumor has it that that facility is a Network Operations Center as well, with
various HF licenses for coordination of telecommunications repair /
coordination with other facilities like it. The same rumor suggests that
it's mostly unused (as of pre-9/11 at least).
