WCC/WIM Cape Cod, MA

WCC began as Marconi station CC established in 1903 in South Wellfleet.  The famous four legged Marconi towers were a primary featire of the station.  These can be seen on American Marconi Co. stock certificates and in the MRHS logo.

WCC and its sister station WIM were called Marion Radio in the 1930s.  WCC operated on 117kc, 129kc, 141kc, 143kc (later 147kc) 406kc and 500kc as well as twelve frequencies in the HF bands.  WIM operated on 406kc and 500kc as well as eleven frequencies in the HF bands, almost all of which were shared with WCC. 

The site of the original station has almost completely disappeared into the Atlantic due to erosion.
