This is a view of the station looking toward Glace Bay
and the Atlantic Ocean. The power house is at the left
and the transmitter building is at the right. The four
wooden latticework towers (moved from Table Head)
together with outlying masts supported an umbrella of
antenna wires that do not show up in the photograph.
