Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: This is the 100-foot long slotted pylon antenna of Sacramento TV station KXTV, on channel 10. It was replaced in the '00s when KXTV went digital and relocated on much taller new candelabra tower about 200 feet from this scene. It had stood idle on one corner of the red and white Transtower candelabra, a little over a half mile (1km) north of here, until the morning of May 5, 2020, when it was moved here by a sky crane, to be used as scrap.
In fact, you can see it standing on the far corner of the Transtower in this shot here, from November 2019. The design is a slotted array. The tall stack of slots gave the signal with a strong and narrow beam in all directions toward the horizon. KXTV spent more than a decade on the UHF band before returning to channel 10 with its current antenna. (Writing this on October 9, 2021.) |
