I was a lowly 2nd Lieutenant at Ft Monmouth in 1968. I was going thru a tropo scatter class. I used to love to drop in to K2USA in that wooden barracks building.  I don't remember much except that it was waay cool to me.  I wonder if there are any pictures of the place online?

Maybe the termination was changed in later years. I was permanently assigned to K2USA from '63-'65 (not bad duty for a ham). We ran thousands of phone patches to/from SE Asia on that rhombic and the 20m monobander @ 90 feet. I used to break into QSOs between two local VKs chatting via ground wave with that antenna. I was the only signal they could hear.

You probably knew Mike Reason. When I was there, he was a local kid who used to hang out at the MARS station. Great guy, now SK.
