Back in the early 70's I worked in ATC on the Cape Wrath range.....as Heathrow Director mentioned earlier, the air weapons range is actually Garvie Island, a huge lump of rock just off the main land that was used for testing live 1000lb ordnance from the air. The navy also get a chance to play with it by bombarding it from the sea. The ATC lookout was and indeed still is on Farraid Head just across the bay from the rock. The problem we used to have was the rock was in good lobster ground and frequently fished by the local lobster boats.......during exercise periods a notice would be placed in the local pub "Smoo Cave hotel" but that was about the only effort made to warn off these fisherman......so you can see, thus fishing business is a dangerous game.
