Ebright Azimuth

The Ebright Azimuth[4] is located about 6.5 miles (10.5 km) north of downtown Wilmington, Delaware, in far northern New Castle County, within a few feet of the Pennsylvania state line.

Since the schematic photograph was taken the blue and yellow monument sign has been moved across the street closer to the geodetic marker.

[5] Western Union's engineers specified a heavy-duty prefabricated fire tower structure, which allowed the microwave transmitters and receivers to be installed inside the cab.

"Dish" antennas, mounted behind the window openings, were aimed towards the adjacent relay stations at Mt.

[6] Like most of their early microwave relay sites, Western Union decommissioned the Brandywine installation near Ebright Azimuth as more-reliable broadband fiber systems were developed.
