After flying ceased, the site was retained by the RAF as a high frequency (HF) communications station, part of the RAF Strike Command Integrated Communications System (STCICS) established in the 1970s and NATO's Maritime Air Telecommunications Organization (MATELO). Milltown was a HF transmission station paired with an HF receiving and control station at RAF Kinloss, operated by the RAF's No. 81 Signals Unit (Detachment North).

In April 2001, the RAF's HF communications service was integrated into the Defence Communication Services Agency, with the site becoming known as DCSA Radio Milltown.

The communications station closed in December 2003 when the RAF's high frequency communications system was replaced by the Defence High Frequency Communications Service.

The site was sold in 2013 to the Innes Estate and returned to agriculture

iper Alpha
In March 1972, the American Occidental Group obtained an offshore license for two blocks (Blocks 14/19 and Blocks 15/17) in the UK sector of the North Sea. During January 1973, oil was discovered within Block 15/17, located between 180 km and 190 km north east of Aberdeen in Scotland. The reservoir was named the Piper field. To exploit the field, the Piper Alpha platform was constructed, initially in separate sections by McDermott Engineering at their Adrdesier facility near Inverness in Scotland and by Union Industrielle d'Entreprise (UIE) at Cherbourg in France. The sections were then combined at Ardersier and the completed platform towed to the Piper field during 1975.

Piper Alpha was a fixed-platform with its jacket standing in 144.4 m of water.

The platform had facilities which allowed wells to be drilled and the reservoir fluids (a combination of oil, gas and water) to be extracted, separated and processed, with oil being exported via pipeline to the Flotta Oil Terminal in Orkney. Piper Alpha was designed with a throughput of 250,000 barrels per day (bbl/d).

Piper Alpha was owned by a consortium of companies comprising Occidental Petroleum (Caledonia) Ltd. (36.5% interest), Texaco Britain Ltd. (23.5%), International Thomson PLC (20%) and Texas Petroleum Ltd. (20%).

Production started in late 1976.
