Looking for information on the existence of a USCG radio station located at Cape Elizabeth, ME Station #10 ( Dyer's Cove ). For those of you familiar with the area this is the present day location of the fog horn station. It's just across Dyer's cove from the (former) location of the twin Lighthouses out on Cape Elizabeth, ME. An old photo of the area shows a life saving station was once located there in a parking area next to the present day "Lobster Shack" restaurant. While visiting the site yesterday, I noticed on the small building adjacent to the fog horn building, what appeared to be an old antenna lead-in on the roof. The photo I saw ( A 1953 aerial view of the entire Cape Elizabeth headland )   did show a radio tower next to the flagpole. 
Any info or leads on this would be appreciated
