   Aerials can be extremely efficient; local residents complained about lack
of signal when new aerials were fitted at the top of Crystal Palace mast,
and someone had to climb up and fit a small deflector to give them something
to look at.
   I agree about Guy's Hospital, there is quite an aerial farm up there. I
was on top during the Jubilee celebrations, and we had so much RF shielding
on the camera that we needed to keep switching it off to let it cool down,
yet there was still plenty of interference on the picture. Nice view though.
