NRS NEWPORT CORNER
Transmitter Site
Established by the Royal Canadian Navy in 1942, NRS Newport Corner was in the St. Croix River valley in Newport Corner, 50 kilometres northwest of NRS Albro Lake near Brooklyn. Newport Corner was originally the transmitter site for Albro Lake and later, when Albro Lake closed and CFS Mill Cove opened in 1967, it was the transmitter site for Mill Cove. In the 1990s, due to government cutbacks, NRS Newport Corner and CFS Mill Cove were configured to operate remotely from HMCS Trinity in Halifax.
