Don’t want to have to shell out $30 after having been beat down for however much all the tolls will be on the turnpike for a truck and trailer. May just want to do a Southern Detachment from over here and try to do several bands as opposed to just 60 meters. Would be a lot cheaper!

This facility was originally constructed in 1914 as the receiver site for Marconi's Trans-Atlantic wireless-telegraph link. This was also where Edwin Armstrong demonstrated his regenerative receiver to Marconi's David Sarnoff in January 1914. We have a working demo of this. (Have you ever heard spark on a regen?)
