Preseli, or if you're not Welsh... Presely. As well as TV, Classic FM is broadcast from this site, but all other network FM radio services for this area come from the nearby Haverfordwest site. Originally built by the ITA, 405-line ITV on VHF channel 8, entered service on 14-Sep-1962 and closed January 1985. 3 channels of UHF TV commenced during August 1973, with S4C available from the launch on 1-Nov-1982, and Channel 5, also from the launch on 30-Mar-1997. DTT was added in early 1999. DSO was on 19th August and 16th September 2009.

FM Radio service dates: Classic FM 17-Sep-1996, ILR 105.7 MHz (Real Radio) 9-Sep-2003.










Below the main UHF cylinder are two sets of UHF panels. The upper set (220m) transmitted analogue Channel 5, the lower (205m) transmitted pre DSO, DTT multiplexes A, B, C & D. Multiplexes 1 & 2 used the main cylinder (239m). Lower, on the left are the band II Siras (160m), used by Classic FM and Real Radio.
