White Alice Nome, Alaska, United States. Aerial drone footage of the White Alice communication site in Nome, Alaska. Footage copyright Flying Fern Films Ltd. The White Alice Communications System (WACS, "White Alice" colloq.) was a United States Air Force telecommunication network with 80 radio stations constructed in Alaska during the Cold War. It used tropospheric scatter for over-the-horizon links and microwave relay for shorter line-of-sight links. Sites were characterized by large parabolic, tropospheric scatter antennas as well as smaller microwave dishes for point to point links. White Alice Nome | Geotagged Drone Videos Flying Fern Films
