Notes

The black and white prints of RFE/RL were donated to OSA by the Hoover Institute, California in year 2015. The images are duplicates of those held at Hoover. The originals, and most probably the negatives are with the donor as well. OSA only received the paper prints with captions, and digitized the entire collection in year 2018.

Contents Summary

The gate and one of the buildings of the transmission station compound in Gloria. The photo is taken from a distance on the access road. The compound is surrounded by barbed wire fence. The gate is open. On its two sides there are the Portuguese and American flags. The single story building is white, so is the guard house at the gate. A guard in uniform is standing in the center of the gate opening. Behind the building there are a few radio towers. Outside the compound there are two trees on either side of the access road. HU OSA 300-1-8/3:11, HU OSA 300-1-8/3:12 and HU OSA 300-1-8/3:13 were photographed from approximately the same spot, several years apart, as suggested by the size of the trees. C.f.
