Which is the tallest radio tower in South Africa? Where does it stand and how tall is it?

good question and I have no idea, we dont know to much about his sort of thing
check www.structures.com i think and they have dams, tunnels, towers etc

There's some towers on the farm road between Heidelberg & Wakerville in the Vaal, & there is some flippin TALL towers on that road, wont be surprised if its one of them.

& that website site you gave Giles, is for finance, lol

then the site is dead, was quite an informative one, sort of like eporis before it became all corporate and american

While I haven't seen any of those towers near Heidelberg and as such can't compare, the Alverstone tower is pretty tall too.

Sentech Tower ?

Durbsboi and others, can you show us some pictures if possible of the other towers.

Well they not towers like those, they pretty different, I think I got some pics at home of them, will post tomorrow.

those two are big, but compared to some of the other transmitter towers they are small. dont forget those are big concrete structures, the others are just metal structures. would be interesting to find out which is.

Good tip: try to get a list of air traffic obstacles in South Africa and check it carefully.

typicaly guy masted towers are taller than free standing structuures so I would deffinaly theink there are 250m plus transmission towers somewhere in SA

Shite, forgot to look through my pics, will try & look for them though.

Heres the google view of them, as you can see from the shadows, they are pretty tall.

far too much time on your hands big guy

^^ i agree!!

LOL, well I should drive past these things atleast twice a year before, so thats why it caught my attention. plus I knew the location of it, so wasnt hard to find it on google earth.

Got the name of them, so if anyone can get heights, it will be cool.
