Located to the W of Lochan Dubh are the remains of a GPO (Genernal post Office) radio station. It comprised three buildings, two of which lay on the E side of track (at NM 86265 31987) and a rectangular enclosure which contained a mast array.
According to Martin Briscoe the date of the station is unknown, but it is shown on aerial images of Oban in 1949.
