Cape Spear is the most easterly point in North America and is located 15 kilometers (about 9.375 miles) from St. John's, NF. We understand that the 42 Radio Detachment radar station was located near the lighthouse. It is hoped that someone with knowledge will eventually come along and confirm this detail for our web site. None the less - looking at the map, I lean towards the thought that the radar station was established in the general vicinity of the first lighthouse at Cape Spear.
