THE TRANSMISSION GALLERY

FORT WIDLEY

Photos by Vinnie Lo Page last updated: 2022-04-07

Small-scale DAB (2016)

This co-linear served as the antenna for the Portsmouth SSDAB trials before transmissions were relocated to the Arqiva tower in April 2022.
The transmitter and amplifier gear were housed in a shed nearby.


Antenna, with the main Fort Widley transmission tower behind. The small dish near the bottom received a feed from Highbury College in the early days prior to getting broadband internet up to site.


Contact telephone numbers have been removed from this photo.


The shed is numbered with the mux's frequency block!


It's a dull and dreary day of my visit. But from the site, you can see right across Portsmouth, over the Solent and to the Isle of Wight.
