Also enjoyed the "yearly broadcast" from there also. <br /><br />I felt fortunate to work Ascension Island in that general vicinity. There's some videos on You Tube of airplanes landing on this island with the big "hump" in the middle of the runway. <br /><br />I bet St Helena was an interesting place to visit?Jspikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751088160139882564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156518320909350372.post-85682737413254857332013-11-25T06:49:16.605-08:002013-11-25T06:49:16.605-08:00I visited Ascension Island on my way to St Helena ...I visited Ascension Island on my way to St Helena in 1999. It's essentially an antenna farm and military base in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. There are no permanent residents as far as I know, just RAF and USAF personnel stationed there.<br /><br />Nice contact!<br /><br />Julian, G4ILOAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11984840704237681015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156518320909350372.post-91268416172362129732013-11-25T05:51:51.808-08:002013-11-25T05:51:51.808-08:00Hello Mike,
