KPH/WCC HF Operating Position and Receiver
RCA KPH Receiver Station, Pt. Reyes, CA, 8 March 2003.
This is one of the HF CW operating positions; it was also
a control point for WCC (an Atlantic station, near Boston).
This facility, which housed the receivers and operating
positions for KPH, the RCA high seas morse code and SITOR
service, closed in 1997. The transmitters are in Bolinas
(about 15 miles south). KPH is now maintained (and
occasionally put back on the air) by the Marine Radio
Historical Society. The site is largly as it was
left when it was decommissioned in 1997.
