Comments:

There are three masts on Churchdown Hill, the broadcast one and two mobile 'phone masts. The hill also boasts a church right at the top (hence the name!) and there's even a house next to the broadcast mast.

As for the antennas, the Digital One DAB aerials are on the pole right at the top.

The top set of crossed dipoles are for BBC Radio Gloucestershire and Severn Sound. The lower set (just on two sides of the mast) carry national BBC radio.

BBC DAB dipoles have only just been installed and are located within the upper crossed dipole set.

Channel 5 is also broadcast from the site.
