Larry,
The US Navy pulled out of NW Cape years ago. It is manned entirely by
Australian forces since about 1980. The US techs there took a lot of teasing
about being replaced by Australian females. NW Cape was on of our
terminating points when I was on Diego Garcia in 1979-80. Great DX as VQ9DM.

You should see the rhombic antennas at NW Cape, Australia the Navy has run
for years near Canarvon. The locals are so afraid of the flashovers they
won't go anywhere near them!...(c;
