thanks Garry - I think ive got a shot of one of mott ndbs somewhere in the cavern and prob a note of ehich ndbs they were. Easter island no, but Acension yes, but not for long - out of a Hercules and into a VC10 in 82... glad it wasnt a Victor or a Vulcan - just long enough - testing my graying cells!

I think they're still active and the only ones on the air at the moment. All are listed at http://www.classaxe.com/dx/ndb/rna/signal_list with high TX power (1 to 3 kW) and I bet the antenna farms aren't shabby either.
