FOLKESTONE MF
| Photos by David Stanley | Page last updated: 2026-06-22 |
| The Folkestone MF site is scheduled for closure on 31-Jul-2026, so this is a last chance to take some photos of it whilst it is an active site. Like many other sites, it looks somewhat neglected. Very little has changed since the last photos were taken more than 10 years ago. |
| The south mast is nearest in this photo |
| I do not know which satellite the black dish looks at but it must be a bit marginal from this position. [Ed] Astra 2 is most likely. Receiving the DSat version of 5Live as an RBS. |
| The feed point and spark gap. |
| The generator fuel tank has been removed since the last photos were taken. Satellite imagery shows it missing by 2023. |
| The south mast. |
| And the north. |
| The ATU which I would guess was last used for Radio 1 which closed in 1994. |
