[FedCom] Coast Guard

[~Bill]

High Sites were the original VHF Marine and LANT [East Coast, sorry west
coast] sites used [selected at the console] that the USCG could transmit
from.

Now integrated into the Rescue-21 program

Where Sector Boston previously had a handful of sites, now with Rescue 21
they have many
More that overlap for better triangulation
