HALWELL

| The Halwell relay used to have a small cabinet with single receive log and single transmit log aerials. After DSO, the receive aerial is now a pair of logs, and the small cabinet has been superseded by something much bigger. |

| The aerials on the Halwell relay in May 2008 - the log at the top receives from Beacon Hill, and the log lower down transmits to the village. |

| DSO happened in April 2009, but I hadn't noticed the changes until now (May 2011). A pair of logs now receive Beacon Hill and feed a much bigger equipment cabinet, having a camouflage green colour and then given a pair of bright yellow posts to stop vehicles driving into it. |

| New signage on the supporting post for the cable gantry. |
| The old cabinet (still padlocked) sits under the new gantry for the cables to the new cabinet. |
