| Since Dan Glover visited Mendip in May 2014, aerials for Somerset DAB have been added. I was also luckier with the weather, enjoying bright sunshine. Somerset DAB launched on 26th September 2014. |
| Close up from the top down. |
| The main S1 UHF aerial. Note that the top has been remodeled compared with Martin Watkins pictures from 2013. The angled horizontal bars have been replaced with a halo. |
| 4 tiers of band III dipoles have been added just under the top platform at 272m, to transmit Somerset DAB. |
| IRR 101.0 MHz (Kiss 101). 265m. |
| UHF Reserve (S2). |
| Interleaved Radio Somerset and BBC / D1 DAB. |
| South east Wales DAB. 220m. This was the Severn Estuary DAB transmit aerial. I don't believe that the panels on the right, south facing, are now in use. |
| 4 tiers of slant polarised band II logs for the ILR (102.6 MHz) transmit aerial. |
| The 2 Sira aerials are still in place. Now round to the shaded north face to find the remaining two broadcast aerials. |
| The S3 UHF transmit aerial for mux 7 & 8 at 192m. |
| Local TV at 144m. |
| The dish farm. |
