View of the facilities from the access road

Kettrichhof transmitter is a facility for FM- and TV-broadcasting at Kettrichhof, a village which is part of Lemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It is located at an elevation of 436 metres (1,430 ft) a.s.l. The antenna support is a guyed mast of latticed steel with a square cross section which was built in 1985[1] and was originally 210 metres (690 ft) tall. When new antennas were added in 2007, the height of the mast was increased to 236 metres (774 ft). Reception of its signals is possible in an area spanning from the Eifel to Karlsruhe and Pforzheim and even in elevated locations on the Swabian Alb. On 4 December 2007, the TV transmitter was switched over to DVB-T,[2] and DAB+ transmissions from Kettrichhof started on 9 September 2015.[3]
