This photograph of RTE's FM relay transmitter
site for Waterford city in S.E. Ireland was taken during July 2007 . The mast, in the Rathfadden area
(highest part of the city), was originally built decades ago to facilitate a
microwave link from RTE studios in downtown Waterford onwards to the main
studios in Dublin. However some years ago an FM radio relay was installed on
it to give a stronger FM reception in the city of RTE radio than that
available from the main transmitter for the southeast at Mt Leinster. The
transmit aerials are the two dipoles mounted off the right-hand side of the
mast, whilst receive yagis can be seen on the left of the mast.
