Naval Communications Station Harold E. Holt

​

Overview​

Naval Communications Station Harold E. Holt is located on the northwest coast of Australia, 6 kilometres north of the town of Exmouth, Western Australia. The town of Exmouth was built at the same time as the communications station to provide support to the base and to house dependent families of U.S. Navy personnel. The station provides very low frequency radio transmission to Royal Australian Navy and United States Navy ships and submarines in the western Pacific Ocean and eastern Indian Ocean. The frequency is 19.8 kHz. With a transmission power of 1 megawatt, it is the most powerful transmission station in the Southern Hemisphere. The station features thirteen tall radio towers. The tallest tower is called Tower Zero and is 387 metres tall, and was for many years the tallest man-made structure in the Southern Hemisphere. Six towers, each 364 metres tall, are placed in a hexagon around Tower Zero. The other six towers, which are each 304 metres (997 feet) tall, are placed in a larger hexagon around Tower Zero.
