The location of this antenna directly at the sea was chosen, to use the
excellent conductivity of the sea water. The problems of this place in
Norway with the aggressive climate of the Northsea (hefty storms with much
rain) are
- to guarantee the voltage safety for a transmitting power of 1200 kW
- to avoid corrosion
On Bernd Waniewski's website you will see also other MW installation
pictures taken from Tunisia, Spain, Vatican Radio, Netherlands, TWR via T-
systems Mainflingen, LW Norway, WDR Cologne Langenberg, RIAS Berlin - now

Hi Wolfy, a couple of questions from Ian Baxter:
I suppose Leszczynka[SW site of Polish Radio, wb.] refers to the same
place as ? Where is the 198 kHz[LW] mast.
"... name for Radio Polonia's SW TX site, i.e. Leszcynka. I had this
listed as 'Raszyn' (where-ever that is?) I did look at the Radio Polonia
WRTH co-ordinates last week with Google Earth & found a site south of
Warsaw, but site looked to have curtain arrays, maybe there's both log
periodics & curtain arrays on site & I didn't see the log periodics??

yes ,exact coordinates, as seen on Google Earth. Bot installations nearby,
seen clearly on the snap-1.
Longwave TX installation right inside a small wooden area, on the upper
left side of the picture snap.
You will see also the mast in the installation center and three rope cable
holding fitting rows inside the wooden area.
