Naval Radio Section Newport Corner

The callsign for NRS Albro Lake (which was responsible for both facilities) was "CFH" and the combined construction cost was $6 million.

NRS Newport Corner was a critical component in the success of the RCN and its allies in the Battle of the Atlantic; it could transmit to locations halfway across the world, stretching from Murmansk, Russia to the Falkland Islands.

Dartmouth's growth during the post-war years degraded radio reception in Albro Lake as the town became a city by the early 1960s.

NRS Newport Corner functioned much as before, as a detachment of CFS Mill Cove instead of HMCS Albro Lake.

Defence cutbacks in the late 1990s saw both the Newport Corner transmitter and the Mill Cove receiver automated from CFB Halifax, eliminating the requirement for a separately administered Canadian Forces Station, thus CFS Mill Cove was decommissioned and both facilities were renamed as "Naval Radio Section".
