The transmitter Berlin-Dahlem was a transmitter that was located in Berlin-Dahlem on Pacelliallee.
construction
In addition to a smaller lattice tower that served the directional radio, the transmitter system consisted of a 126 meter high, guyed steel lattice tower built in 1967. This was isolated from the earth because it served as a self-radiating transmission mast for medium wave.
use
The transmitter was used by AFN Berlin to broadcast its radio programs on 87.9 MHz (VHF) with an output of 1 kW and 1107 kHz (MW) (up to the entry into force of the Geneva Wave Plan on November 23, 1978 on 935 kHz) with an output of 10 kW used.
End of the transmission system
With the withdrawal of the American armed forces from Berlin , the distribution of AFN Berlin was ended on July 15, 1994 after a three-hour special broadcast that was broadcast in 54 countries with the American national anthem ; The transmitter remained in operation until December 1994 with the AFN Frankfurt supporting program. The transmitter was blown up on December 14, 1996 at 12:23 p.m., after a former AFN employee who wanted to purchase the transmitter tower at a symbolic price of one Deutsche Mark originally planned to dismantle the transmitter tower at its old location and to be rebuilt at another location in the USA . When an appraisal showed that the transmission tower could no longer be used due to its poor condition, the project was finally abandoned.
