Jim Creek Naval Radio Station is a United States Navy very low frequency (VLF) radio transmitter facility at Jim Creek near Oso, Washington. The primary mission of this site is to communicate orders one-way to submarines of the Pacific fleet. Radio waves in the very low frequency band can penetrate seawater and be received by submerged submarines which cannot be reached by radio communications at other frequencies. Established in 1953, the transmitter radiates on 24.8 kHz with a power of 1.2 megawatts and a callsign of NLK, and is one of the most powerful radio transmitters in the world. Located near Arlington, Washington, in the foothills of the Cascades, north of Seattle, the site has 5,000 largely forested acres.

  • Die Jim Creek Naval Radio Station ist ein Längstwellensender der US Navy bei Oso, im US-Bundesstaat Washington. Die Station dient hauptsächlich zur Einwegkommunikation mit getauchten U-Booten, um diesen Befehle zu übermitteln. Sie ging 1953 in Betrieb und verwendet ein sehr ungewöhnliches Antennensystem, welches aus mehreren Drähten besteht, die an 61 Meter hohen Türmen befestigt und zwischen dem Wheeler Mountain sowie dem Blue Mountain über das Tal des gespannt sind. Mit einer Sendeleistung von 1,2 MW gehört der Sender der Jim Creek Naval Radio Station zu den leistungsfähigsten der USA und sendet auf einer Frequenz von 24,8 kHz. (de)
