29 November 2003 at 0730 utc. Time Signal Station WWVH Hawaii 15 Mhz.
Received "Traditional Boat" QSL and also QSL letter signed by Dean T.
Okayama (Engineer in Charge) Also received a colour photo of their
Transmitter site and brochure on their station in one month via Air for no
reply postage.

Back in 1995, I was in Kauai,and stopped by the transmitter in Kekaha.
The engineers were more than happy to give me a tour of the facility
and view the transmitters which are cooled by seawater as the site is
on the beach (and beautiful!!)
I never thought of it, but they mentioned that the electricity bill
cost a fortune.
I understand they no longer give tours of the facility.
