Shortwave stations

[Alexander Svirsky]

This is a 1971 aerial photo of the Wilmington antenna site, clearly  
showing towers:

The address would be somewhere between 201-251 Ballardvale St  
Wilmington, Mass.

Online deed searches for a prior owner has been a dead end so far.

As for the Newburyport Beverage, the armory is on Low Street. The  
Beverage could have stretched across that pasture land.

There was another interesting Beverage in Belfast, Maine operated by  
RCA before the AT&T site was built. The following URL has pics and an  
aircheck! According to the article, this antenna was part of a  
trans-Atlantic music broadcast in 1925.
