I have just noticed two Aerial / Satellites erected on the exterior of the
estate I live at. Here are the photos

Do you think these are likely to be the ones used to provide freeview and
freesat/sky to the residents of the estate? All the other ones scattered
around are only satellite dishes and appear to be attached to particular
flats.

The FM aerial is crap, it doesn't look to me like a very professional job.

Not that bothered about FM really, probably won`t connect anything to the FM
port. It looks like things are finally starting to move around here.

Is this a good installation?
Is it too much for the mast, and are the cables held to the mast in a good
way.
Was wondering how the 6 cables entered the building but not clear on the
photo.
Will the circular FM aerial get used for both FM and DAB I wonder or do
people use the built in aerial of their radios these days.
Regards
David

Here is another photo from a different angle which shows the cables entering
the building

There are no DAB transmissions within a hundred kilometres at least.

Just went to the Supermarket and noticed there is a 3rd Aerial/Satellite
installation on the building across the road similar the the ones
photographed above, these have all recently appeared as they weren`t there a
couple of weeks ago otherwise I would have noticed.

I am pretty sure these masts have only appeared in the last couple of
weeks and I have proof Mast 1 was not there on May 25th 2009 because I
have a photo from the date in which it does not appear.

I was specifically looking at the estate across the road a couple of
weeks ago for Satellite dishes and did not notice Mast 3 then. I have
been generally keeping an eye out for new erections for the last couple
of months.
