STOCKLAND HILL
| Photos by Babcock Networks Ltd., Martin Watkins and mb21 | Page last updated: 2012-02-15 |
| On these pages we will give you some idea of the work involved in updating a high power main station in the run-up to digital switchover. We are indebted to Laura, Ian, Colin and the team working at Stockland Hill for their help and co-operation, and to Mike Stewart of Babcock Networks Ltd. Here the jib has been delivered and is being assembled... |
Meanwhile, at the top of the mast, the mountings for the jib are being installed... |
| The old cylinder is lifted off... |
| The job seems to be going well! |
| And down it goes... The cylinder assembly weighs about 3.2 tons. |
| A section of the old access platform had aready been removed to allow the installation of the jib. |
| These shots look a bit murky due to the temporary low cloud cover |
