The main UHF transmit antenna.


The upper band III transmit array at 142m. Note that there are only panels on three of the four sides. They face 25/110/200 degrees. Ofcom data indicates that only the Digital One multiplex is transmitted from here.


Two tiers of Alan Dick & Co band II panels transmit all the FM radio services. They face 75/195/315 degrees.


Reserve UHF transmit. The panels are embossed RFS


The lower band III transmit array at 119m. Ofcom data indicates that the BBC, Swansea. Mid & West Wales DAB multiplexes are transmitted from here. The four dipoles on the right are facing roughly east-southeast. The two 5 element Yagis on the left are pointing west-northwest.


Band II log periodics receive the BBC FM radio signals from Wenvoe.


On the left is a UHF trough receive on Presely. This was the analogue TV programme source. The UHF log periodics are probably receiving Kilvey Hill..
