There are four vertically polarised contract-quality aerials on one mast. The mast was pressing against the decorative corbelling, so of course as it moved in the wind it rubbed, was weakened, and eventually snapped. This installation was one of three on a building that had been converted to flats. It was in a terrible reception area, and the cheap little aerials were only providing very poor signals even before the mast snapped. What are these people thinking about? It would have been cheaper, easier, and so much better, to have installed one really good aerial and a small distribution amplifier.
