THE TRANSMISSION GALLERY

WENVOE

Photos supplied by Martin Watkins and Peter Bigwood

This first photo was published in 1963 but probably taken in the 1950s - when the mast was built or soon after. Here the Band I aerials are in pride of place at the very top of the mast though they would later be moved and mounted on the to the two blank panels immediately above the the slot aerial used for the horizontally polarised Band II VHF radio transmissions.

The Band I aerials can be seen in their later position in the last photo on this page...

This photo is taken from the cover of a BBC transmitter guide, shows the old Wenvoe mast and its replacement being constructed alongside in 1985.

The photo below is from the cover of the August 1974 edition of BBC Engineering magazine.
