Comments: Relay of Mendip

Box

The village of Box is located just to the east of Bath in Wiltshire. The area is quite hilly, and the village lies in the bottom of the By Brook valley. The relay is a low powered affair, just enough to cover the village itself.

Transmissions are from a single vertical log periodic, pointing due west. The RX antenna is a log periodic pointing at Mendip.
