LICHFIELD

| Not much change at Lichfield, but some updated photos for the gallery. |
| The old Channel 5 panels are still in situ. |
| Along with Turners Hill, Lichfield was one of the launch transmitters for the Birmingham DAB multiplex in May 2000. It was 0.5 kW ERP, but under the local DAB build-out Lichfield was turned up to 2.5 kW ERP. I believe these are the original panels from when the Birmingham multiplex launched. |
| From what I remember, the Derby multiplex went into service in November 2014. The log periodics point towards the Burton area. The Derby multiplex is 5 kW ERP from Lichfield, and it shows - it is receivable over a large part of the Midlands. |
| Pre-DSO HD panels face towards Birmingham. I'm guessing there wasn't enough space on Sutton Coldfield, meaning they had to be put here? |
| Wrekin facing TV aerial |
| What I think are Oxford facing aerials. |
| The ILR Sira points northwards towards Burton. |
| Waltham facing aerials. |
| My guess is that the dish on the left points towards Copt Oak, whereas the one on the right at Pye Green. |
| FM aerial pointing towards Sutton Coldfield. |
