Cambridge Bay LORAN Tower is a 189 metre tall guyed lattice tower at Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, Canada. It was built in 1947/48 for LORAN transmissons. Today the tower is used as a Non-directional beacon and is often called to the "CB" beacon after the morse code letters that it transmits on 245 kHz, with an output power of 2000 watts.
