Moorside Edge transmitting station, opened in 1931, was originally constructed to radiate the BBC's North Regional (from May 17 on 626 kHz) and National Programmes (from July 12 on 995 kHz).〔(DEVELOPMENT OF THE (BBC) A.M. TRANSMITTER NETWORK )〕 It is – at 200 kW erp – one of the most powerful mediumwave radio transmitters in Britain. Formed of two 158-metre-high steel lattice towers, it is located just above Moorside Edge (). Other nearby transmitting stations are Holme Moss (11.56 km, bearing 168.17°) and Emley Moor (15.4 km, bearing 99.41°). As with most mediumwave transmitters, a good "signal earth" is important and this is assured by the waterlogged nature of the ground on which it is built. The site's location on the Pennine Hills means that signals from Moorside Edge can be received at very long distances: as far north as Scotland, as far south as the Midlands, as far west as Dublin, and well beyond the country's eastern (North Sea) coast. The station is now owned and operated by Arqiva and broadcasts the following services: == See also== *List of masts *List of radio stations in the United Kingdom 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moorside Edge transmitting station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
