October 2011

These photos were taken during a maintenance visit. The site, next to the River Don, is accessible only via private roads controlled by the adjacent prison.


The antenna is a mast radiator, with tuned "ladder" reflector




The Band II yagi probably dates from the time when this site was used by Radio Hallam


There's work to do up there. Back in a bit...

The base insulator and feed for the mast
