Precision work on BR-transmitter Kreuzberg. The transmission tower on the Kreuzberg in the Rhön is already Lower Franconia highest point. And now he is still a bit higher, because he has a new antenna. The mount was hard work - in the truest sense of the word.  Four tons weighs the antenna that pulls the red helicopter upwards. Thanks to the double rotor, the pilot keeps the helicopter relatively quiet in the air. Just as an assembly is possibleIdeal.

Ideal weather for the installation work.

"I think we are all a bit excited, that's exciting," says an employee of the broadcasting equipment. He and his colleagues document the complex assembly with a camera. And they offer stunning images. "We hope that nothing goes wrong. But there are indeed professionals at work, since everything will work out smoothly."

Even the weather is - fortunately: "It is relatively calm, and the need, if one takes flight load machines," explains Heiko transmission technician Herbert. "If the wind gusting, the whole would be withering away, and that would not be good."
 

"This is a UHF antenna with which we here DVB-T2 broadcast from October 2017. UHF means Ultra High Frequency, which are the television signals that can be received at home terrestrially. And DVB-T 2 is the new standard. That is, we have HD TV, which can be received terrestrially here. " Roland Jauernik, Bayerischer Rundfunk.
