点评:This small museum tells an interesting story about early telecommunications in Canada, and why it is located in the small Newfoundland village of Hearts Content.
As such, it’s certainly worth an hour of your time, if you aren’t going too far out of your way to get to it.
Some previous reviews suggest that you might be lucky enough to have someone on staff walk you through a guided tour of the premises. I visited last day of the season, and perhaps they were a bit short staffed because I got a short introductory explanation at the entrance and was then shown to the room where the video was shown, and then told that I could walk through myself and could ask questions at the end.
The video is interesting; the old equipment you wander past is cool to see, but there is limited signage to explain what the function of each piece was; if a guide had been available to walk me through I might have learned a fair bit more than I did. But it’s cheap to visit, so no reason not to check it out if you are passing through Hearts Content.

因此,如果您不走太远的话,这里绝对值得您花一个小时的时间参观。
一些先前的评论表明,您可能很幸运地会有工作人员带您参观整个场地。我是在本赛季的最后一天参观的,也许他们人手有点短缺,因为我在入口处得到了一个简短的介绍性解释,然后被带到了播放视频的房间,然后他们告诉我我可以自己参观,最后可以提问。
视频很有趣;您经过的旧设备很酷,但只有有限的标志来解释每个部件的功能;如果有导游带我参观,我可能会学到比现在更多的东西。但参观费用很便宜,所以如果您路过 Hearts Content,没有理由不去看看。
