Since the earlier pictures were taken in April 2008, ILR and BBC DAB have been added at Llandinam and DSO has happened. For UHF TV receive, the 4 log periodics and the wooden pole have gone and the UHF log periodics on the tower have been replaced with 2 UHF Yagis. We understand that more recently the TV services are now line fed. (March 2015) Service dates: ILR (originally Real Radio), 30th December 2010; BBC DAB, 30th June 2011. |
The broadcast tower is the one on the left. |
The UHF transmit cylinder and the DAB aerials on the right. |
FM radio transmit consisting of two horizontal band II log periodics and a single vertical dipole. The vertical dipole is rather lost against the tower steelwork. Note the bent element on the left (northeast facing) log. |
Further round and the band II vertical dipole is clearer to see. |
UHF receive from Long Mountain, although this site is now line fed for TV. |
A single band II log periodic is used to receive the BBC FM radio programme feeds from Llangollen. |
DAB satellite receive dish and a 4 element band II Yagi, probably receiving the ILR programme feed from Long Mountain. That is the direction that it is pointing. |
The two GPS antennas would indicate that this cabin is the home of the DAB transmitter. |
This mast is a few hundred metres down the hill, but not used for any broadcast services. |
