If a mast does not get removed, what does. Does the transmitting equipment and cabling get left in place with only the electricity intakes disconnected or does everything get stripped out.
I wondered that ,the other day ,while walking past the Rusthall site in Tunbridge Wells.
Are the transmitters still inside??
The mast ran TalkSport at 4kw and BBC Kent at 250 watts.
After all, who would want them?
I would imagine you couldn't give the things away ,unless they are good for parts, or scrap value.
It's very expensive to dispose (legally !) of redundant industrial electrical and electronic kit. They may well have removed some components for spares, but the rest will probably remain until it actually has to be removed for disposal
Maybe a certain ship based broadcaster might be interested...
