Public Service Broadcasting's "Race For Space" album launch, 1st night, at The National Space Centre, Leicester, England.
26th February 2015
Broadcasting Place Leeds forms part of the Leeds Metropolitan University campus and includes the 23 storey Broadcasting Tower, which provides accommodation for some of the University's student population, and the low rise Blenheim Place Baptist Church. Designed by Feliden Clegg Bradley Architects, the Broadcasting Tower won the prestigious Best Tall Building in Europe 2009 award, given by the internationally acclaimed Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), based at the Illinois Institute of Technology.
The entire complex is clad in COR-TEN steel and the development has more square metres of COR-TEN steel cladding than any other building in Europe.

On top is KABC-TV/7 and KRCA/62, mechanically beam-tilted down toward the metro.
The structure is 1010346, built in 1983 and owned by ABC
KRCA is a virtual 62, radiating within KABC's 7 signal. The antenna is a Harris TAV-6H CPV, with circular polarization and slight directionality.
The panel antenna with four bays and white domes is the old KABC/7 analog aural antenna, now decommissioned.
Below that are five of KLOS/95.5's master antenna's six bays. Details—

This is in the antenna farm on Mt. Wilson, a ridge looming a mile above Los Angeles.
Some freelance work I've done for Leeds Metropolitan University documenting how it is to be a student there.

The tower is ASR (Antenna Structure Registration) 1013888, at the time of this shot the home of KXLA/44, which had an antenna mounted atop the tower. To my knowledge (in January 2024), all but one of the antenna systems here have been decommissioned or replaced. The directional two-bay side-mounted "penetrator" style antenna on top was KPWR/105.9, now on the KCAL/9 tower. The one below (four X antennas in directional baskets—called "cavity backed radiators") was for KNX-FM/97.1 from 2021 to 2026. It's very directional, roughly matching the shape of the metro, with the strongest signal toward the west. Both 105.9 and 97.1 moved here from their original sites on Flint Peak in Glendale, below Mt. Wilson. The other two antennas are UHF-TV ones.
