The General Post Office announces that the Goonhill Station, Cornwall is being converted to enable it to receive signals from the EARLY BIRD communications satellite.
Goonhilly will be out of operation for six months from September 1964. All transatlantic comsat tests and transmissions will be handled by the French station at Pleumeur-Bodou.
