history
Nautel Ltd. was founded in 1969 in Hackett's Cove. The initial business purpose included the construction and maintenance of electrical radio-controlled lighting systems for the Canadian government. In order to be able to market the products better in the USA, a subsidiary was opened in Bangor , Maine in the USA in 1974 . 1970 Nautel delivered the first radio beacon system to the Canadian government. This worked at a frequency between 190 and 535 kHz and served as a navigation aid for aviation and seafaring. 1982–1985 the first transmitters for radio stations were presented. The first 50 kW transmitter was purchased by CBA (AM) in Moncton and was in service until April 8, 2008.
