Also known as Paris North and operational from 1962-1991. The site was a dual-mode relay site in the AFCENT-France network, with troposcatter links to the AFNORTH-United Kingdom site at Coldblow Lane outside of London and the ACE High Primary Control Center at Lamersdorf, West Germany. The site also had microwave links to the AFCENT sites at Emerville (FEMZ) and Taverny (FTAZ).
The site was shut down in 1991 and had its antennea demolished shortly thereafter and is now in an abandoned state. A portion of the former station site is now used as a radio and cellular transmission site.
