What is/was there?

I know a few years ago they used a single phone line that was installed in 1971 to carry a time code signal.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

That's quite impressive though.

Heck, there is still lead sheathed cable in use in many places. C Rural Wire, lead sheathed, steel armored submarine cable. That stuff lasts.

I do wonder where their landing sites are, and if they have air on the cable.

That is also the island where they launch the fireworks for the 360 degree view fireworks during new year's eve and 4th of july weekend. You can see from this google map pic there are boxes in the center from the island.
