One weird fact about my neighbourhood. We have WW 1 installations all over the place. We were the archor for the anti-submarine cable that went across Sydney Harbour. (Cape Breton).
The ship convoys would gather off our beach before crossing the Atlantic to English. They would fill up with coal here. This is long before me.
Not far from me was the first Marconi relay station. It was one of the first to transmit to England. I have been at our Marconi museum several times, I am also a Hamradio operator.
We even had a uboat storm the beach hear the Marconi radio station to look at it and report back.
