KBS World Transmitter Site Kimje undergoing renovation


The most up-to-date satellite picture (18 September 2015) on Google Earth from the KBS World Transmitter Site Kimje (Gimje, Kimjae, 김제: 35°49'11.22"N 126°51'46.81"E) reveals the fact that the site is being modernised. The most western antenna field gets new steel lattice towers to replace the ageing single mast steel towers. And it appears that the foundations of some of the masts where reinforced with concrete. Though I searched for any news on the subject in German, English and Korean I couldn't find any publicity as yet. Please feel free to spread the news by mentioning the source: Arnulf Piontek, Berlin, Germany

THANK YOU!
Enjoy our common hobby,
