A Tour of the Fenton TV relay station, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire

Part 2

Here's another shot of the dishes. The camera is facing north here.
	Here's another clue to what goes on here - there's a Cellnet logo on the side of this brick building. This must be a mobile phone point of presence. Various paging equipment is installed here too.
A warning sign on the side of the main mast - "Do not climb this mast." There was other text, but being a duffer I never thought to take a shot in high quality mode on the digital camera.
	The view from the top. In the foreground is Berryhill Industrial Estate, (nice) and the tall buildings are in Hanley. The masts themselves are a dominant presence in the city - they are visible for miles around, particularly if you travel south down the A500.
Relay: Fenton Station No.: 102.11 ERP: 10kW In Service Date: 21/1/72

There are more transmitters at Mike Brown's Ether.net.

There's loads on the Lichfield mast and tower over on Bob Cotton's Lichfield Memories.

There is a page with some information about an American transmitter here.

Many thanks to David Harrison for some information on these pages.
