| The main digital television antenna (S1) on the new/DSO mast. |
| The reserve digital television antenna (S2) on the new/DSO mast. This wrap around antenna system is at roughly the same height as the former analogue antenna system on the old mast (Mean height: 163m agl). |
| This montage is of the new/DSO mast and was taken before the feeders were pulled up the mast. |
| The Digital One (DAB) antenna system (left) on the old/analogue mast. |
| The Band II re-broadcast standby (RBS) antenna system, pointing towards Wrotham, on the old/analogue mast. |
| It's now the end of May 2010, and the feeder pull up the new/DSO mast has begun. This feeder drum contained 330m of RFS Heliflex 5" air cable. |
| The Alan Dick Band II (FM) antenna system panels, with the BBC digital radio (DAB) dipoles already attached. |
| One of the stay anchor blocks, for the new/DSO mast. |
| The base of the new/DSO mast, with the first 5" thick feeder running up it. |
| Looking up at the new/DSO mast, before the many antenna systems are added. The anti-twist stays (bottom set) are approx. 38m agl. |
| The old/analogue mast. The Band II RBS yagis can clearly be seen (middle-right). |
| Even Bambi seems to be taking an interest in TAC's digital switchover work... |
