Camperdown Signal Station

The first Radio Direction Finding Station in Canada opened at the site in 1917 with call sign VAV.

The Dominion Government Steamer (DGS) 'Canada' was the first ship to contact the Camperdown Wireless Station, on June 19, 1905.

[2][3][4] In 1921 the equipment at Camperdown VCS consisted of a 2 kilowatt, nonasynchronous disc, 60-cycle Marconi coast station spark transmitter.

Also, a 1⁄4 kilowatt asynchronous disc 500-cycle Marconi cabinet type spark set, powered by a battery which was kept charged from a 1-1/2 HP engine and generator.

A magnetic detector (ancestor of the wire recorder) formed part of an auxiliary receiver.
