Comments: Poole is a TV relay of Rowridge

Updated March 2012 - DSO receive change

This Rowridge relay is located in the Parkstone area of Poole in Dorset.






Since the above photos were taken DAB dipoles have now been added at the top of the tower which apparently provide excellent BBC mux coverage to Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch.






From Chris Youlden's March 2012 visit: a closer view of the DAB dipoles...


...and the Sira antennas used for Wave 105


In common with a number of Rowridge relays, a VP RBL log has been added. This makes use of Rowridge VP transmissions following DSO and will help protect this site from CCI which has previously blighted analogue reception.
