Ayios Nikolaos (Cyprus)
Ayios Nikolaos, in the Dhekelia British sovereign base in Cyprus, is a listening station of the spying network ECHELON. The Joint Service Signal Unit (JSSU), formerly 9th Signal Regiment, is based at Ayios Nikolaos providing both the UK Armed Forces and the United Nations Forces with electronic warfare support and command and control systems.
Note that Ayios Nikolaos or Agios Nikolaos is a very common place name in Greece and Cyprus since it means "Holy Nicholas" and Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of Greece.
