Sahlenburg Marine Radio Station

The coast radio station Sahlenburg was an institution of the Elbe-Weser Radio in Sahlenburg district of Cuxhaven for maritime radio communication in marginal and short-wave range.

Antennas

The coast radio station originally used as a transmitting antenna, a triangular patch antenna, which at three 1929 built 40 meter high, fish belly shaped, guyed masts of pitch pine wood was attached.

In September 1937, these masts were replaced by three free-standing, 50 -meter-high towers of Brandenburg pine wood with a triangular cross -section, which also contributed a triangular patch antenna. 1967 were canceled due to old age and provided the remaining tower with a long wire antenna, two of these towers. 1970, this tower was dismantled after two 67 -meter-high, insulated from earth, self-radiating transmission towers were built in steel framed structure with a square cross-section.

Since the cessation of the coast station Sahlenburg these poles serve the mobile.
