Position: 61:21N-117:38W.
Opened on 15th June 1939 for a brief period but was short-lived due to the
outbreak of war. The station closed on September 5th. The Providence Station
buildings were taken over by a small detachment of the US Signal Corps in
the Fall of '42 to provide weather reports and communications for aircraft
employed on the Canol Pipeline project. An emergency landing field was constructed
there and US Army Engineers erected new radio station buildings which were
eventually taken over again by RC Signals in July 1943. It was handed over
to the Department of Transport on March 15th, 1959.
