Hi All,

I live in Sligo, and on an elevated site overlooking the town.

If it is possible, how can I do it?, what do I need ? and where do i get it?

Big aerials. Blake, Hirchmann, Kathrein

It's 3 to 4 times higher frequency so much more difficult at extreme edge of reception. Also Brougher Mountain is not terribly high power, I think 400W rather than the kiloWatts of Divis or even Five on Blackmountain.
