SatCom Array NW-07c

SatCom Array NW-07c is a satellite array, part of the SatCom Array in the Capital Wasteland.

Location
This array can be found in the far northwestern edge of the Capital Wasteland. It is due west (and across the river) from the Deathclaw Sanctuary, and northwest of the Abandoned Car Fort.

Enemies
It is populated by several Enclave Scientists on the inside and a few Enclave Soldiers, including an Enclave Officer. The scientists look like they've been rounding up Wastelanders for experimentation (also can have sentry bot spawn at higher levels). If you eliminate the threat inside the satellite, then return later, the enemies do not respawn INSIDE the satellite but the wastelanders will! They will be up walking around and telling you to leave them alone like all other wastelanders.

Upon entering you will notice a corpse pile comprised of several dead Ghoul Wastelanders. It appears the Enclave massacred them. At other Enclave camps throughout the Wasteland you may notice Enclave Soldiers torching Ghouls, both feral and friendly.

It is also possible that the ghoul wastelanders, upon entering and leaving, may somehow resurrect and begin walking around the Array and may possibly attack the occupying Enclave. They will even sit down and talk amongst each other, though they won't talk to you. Attacking any of the ghouls will not make any of the others hostile toward you at all. ("Better him than me.")

If visited before completing the Waters of Life main quest, then the area should contain a scavenger. At higher levels, you may encounter Talon Company mercenaries.

It is also possible to have the area inhabited by Raiders. You will notice this by the Raider graffiti on the towers
