The telecommunications tower Beckum on the Höxberg south of Beckum in 1952 by the German Federal Post Office built, making it one of the oldest telecommunications towers in reinforced concrete in Germany. It was required for the FREDA radio relay ( frequency- modulated decimeter wave system ) on the Hamburg – Cologne television transmission line operated by the then NWDR . The tower is 35 meters high without the antennas on its top. In addition to antennas for the non-public mobile land radio service and directional radio, it also carries VHF transmitting antennas for low-power radio stations. It is used to broadcast the Deutschlandfunk program with 160 watt ERP on 91.5 MHz and the radio WAF program with 250 watt ERP on 95.7 MHz .
