[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 1081925, member: 389824"] Found it - it's the Bruernish relay site... [URL unfurl="true"]http://tx.mb21.co.uk/gallery/gallerypage.php?txid=1075[/URL] If you compare the four sets of photos (the second page has two sets) you can see its evolution over from analogue relay to digital. It looks like at DSO there was originally two different RBL aerial set ups, one working as a pair and another as a single that looked decidedly battered with missing elements. Shortly afterwards a new "trough" receiving aerial was added and the old single RBL aerial taken down later on. Even then the work didn't stop as an old-school prime-focus satellite dish was added to allow PSB1 & PSB3 to be fed via SATBACK instead of RBL and with it the erection of a fence surrounding what was one of the very few such unguarded DTT sites, presumably not so much to protect against vandalism rather than to help shelter the dish from the strong Atlantic wind!
