Both transmitter buildings and three large antenna 'farms' were located just outside Greenville.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stoppingpoints.com/north-carolina/sights.cgi?marker=Voice+Of+America&cnty=Pitt|title=Voice of America, Historical Marker|author=North Carolina Office of Archives & History|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140505123416/http://www.stoppingpoints.com/north-carolina/sights.cgi?marker=Voice+Of+America&cnty=Pitt|archive-date=May 5, 2014}}</ref> The Greenville Transmitting Station provided shortwave broadcasts for U.S. government-funded, non-military, international broadcasting and served as a standby, alternate gateway for the Satellite Interconnect System to use to uplink programming, should the Washington, D.C., SIS gateway have become unavailable. The station was also a backup facility for uplinking programming to the Atlantic Ocean Region satellite and served as the primary return link of that satellite. For the VOA, the main target areas for the station's shortwave broadcasts were Latin America, the Caribbean with special emphasis on [[Cuba]], and Africa. Three complexes, one for management, distribution, and monitoring, and the other two for actual transmitting, formed an approximately {{convert|19|mi|km|adj=on|spell=in}} equilateral triangle around Greenville. At one time, these formed the largest international broadcasting site in the world.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.voanews.com/english/portal.cfm|title=Voice of America Homepage |publisher=VOA News |date=August 20, 2009 |access-date=December 9, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061019153049/http://www.voanews.com/english/portal.cfm |archive-date=October 19, 2006}}</ref> Two of the three sites have been decommissioned.
