Re: 405-Line VHF Aerials in 2013-2014
Hi Steve,
Think you're right about the BIII aerial. The lower 3-element is definately a CH5 BI type as it's larger than BII aerials and lacks the folded dipole. Having said that I've seen some CH5 BI aerials with folded dipoles as well.
I would've thought in that area even 405-line VHF reception would've been difficult, perhaps Rediffusion were popular there in those days? I had relatives in the Walker area of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne who were dependent on it as the City Centre blocked the view to the SW. When it finally closed down high gain UHF aerials sprouted up directed towards Bilsdale.
Cheers,
Brian
