Brian the main type of roadside 5G mast now, well around our way, is 20
to 25 Metres!.

80 meters is quite high. We did a coverage plot of the area at that
height and it wasn't that much different in coverage terms But i don't
think they'll be using the same ERP!...

FWIW Nelsons column is only 52 metres!..

Might be a few odd salvageable panels of that lot plus the Pikey's
scrappies will be pleased they won't have to burn the insulation off the
cables;)...

Looks to me that the pair of Siras seen here:-

http://admin.mb21.co.uk/tx/userimages/27471proc20191109024109.jpg

Made it to the ground intact (by virtue of them on the top of the tube
after landing)

I'm sure they'll be repurposed for '107.4 The Lobster' or equivalent
service, and start a new life strapped to the roof of an office block.

There was one on a pole 'looking' straight into our 6th floor hotel
window in Portugal.
The other side of the street, about 20-30 metres away. Oh well.

What of the accompanying building, was that knocked down too? Apparently
that Youtube video has seen quite a few views, Many people I know have
viewed it several times. People like to see things demolished I suppose.

A section of the mast, more or less the very bottom part, that just
turned 90 degs and fell on the roof of one of the Tx buildings.
The building wasn't demolished by that, and the section (maybe 15 to 20
ft of 8ft diameter tube) is on the flat roof.

Cannot have done it much good though, I'd have thought, its hardly a bit of
old drainpipe after all.

So how did they build the mast in the first place with all that aerial stuff
on the top and cabling inside?
