About
This abandoned IDGZ station was one of 49 troposcatter stations in the NATO ACE High network.
The NATO Troposcatter Station IDGZ was a telecommunications station located on top of Dosso dei Galli in the Brescia Alps. The station, which operated from 1969 to 1995, was part of the ACE High system, a radio communication network that connected NATO from North to South. The IDGZ station was connected to the German Feldberg station to the north and the Italian Monte Giogo station to the south. The station used troposcatter technology, which allowed for line-of-sight communication even when the two stations are beyond the horizon, providing reliable service in adverse weather conditions.
