A 3 Pole of Wonder

There might be an area that has no population or need to send a signal to, so it won't need an antenna facing that direction.

My own mast only has 2 antennas facing the town, no need for any more as it's just a vast area of fields behind it.

What about rural folk like farmers etc why should they not have coverage for their farms, lots of them use technology for farming these days

The farmers here have coverage from other masts nearer them than this one serving Kilwinning.
 
Originally picked this one up some distance away on A30 Great South West Road, near Heathrow Terminal 4. Turned out to be in Bedfont on Staines Road, eNB 52694. Two others in the area are also in the same colour scheme (main body is black but the 5G panels are grey-white).

Some activity in Troon at long last, must be around 2 years or longer since it was approved.

Might have a new PoW to visit @PB2000. 😊
Hopefully it won't turn into a Tourhill Road Kilmarnock debacle. :(

I'm sure you'll be among the first to test it out when it does go live.

I spotted a new PoW myself when I was up in Greenock today. Not live yet as you can see still waiting for it's 5G antenna. It's just at the Tesco car park. Indoors just across from the mast I was getting speeds of around 20Mbps down and 0.5Mbps up so will provide a massive improvement when it does go live.

Yes it does look odd like that, must be the in thing to leave off the 5G antennas for a few extra months. :rolleyes:

I need to go a trip to Greenock sometime and not just pass through it, although I'm sure some would say that's the best thing you could do.😊

Maybe Gourock sometime too.:)

Plenty of masts to visit up there. Although cellmapper does show an incorrect location for an EE / Three mast in Greenock. They are on the telephone exchange and not Kilblain Court which Vodafone and O2 use.

Oh ill see if I can move it then, if I can find the exchange. 😊
