The receive site at Point Reyes was selected by none other than Dr. Harold Beverage. He was looking for a a location at the edge of the ocean with plenty of flat land for antennas and a very low electrical noise level for point to point HF reception. The site that became knows as RS on the order wire fit the bill. The station began service in 1930. Coast station KPH moved to the site in 1946.
