[A-DX] Sprengung in Lopik


Hallo,

für alle, die die Sprengung eines Sendemasten live miterleben wollen, diese Meldung aus dem MediaNetwork Weblog von Andy Sennitt:

Demolition of Lopik antenna mast live online
As previously reported, the northerly mediumwave mast at the Lopik transmitter site is to be demolished on Saturday 21 August, four months after the signing of a covenant promising to restrict the total power transmitted from the site. The 165 metre mast, which was erected in 1938, will be removed with explosives. For safety reasons nobody will be permitted within a 300 metre zone around the mast.

The mast that will be removed was used during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands to broadcast the programmes of Radio Bremen. From 1945-1980 it was used for the national mediumwave services Hilversum I and II, until these services were transferred to the new site at Flevo.

In a press release, transmission provider Nozema says that a special live Internet stream on its Web site will show the demolition of the mast. The press release does not mention the time, but an earlier report said that it was planned for 0650 UTC.

Servus
