The Heilsberg transmitter is a transmitter in Warmia-Masuria in Poland .
The system was built as a major German transmitter for the "Königsberg I" program in the former East Prussia , around three kilometers northwest of Heilsberg on the highway from Heilsberg to Preussisch-Eylau . From 1935 the station was expanded into a Nazi propaganda station in the network of the German Europe stations .
history
It went into operation on December 15, 1930 with a transmission power of 60 kilowatts . As an antenna , he used a vertical trap , which was stretched on a rope between two free-standing, 102-meter-high wooden towers. The wooden towers stood at a mutual distance of 200 meters. In 1935 the transmission power was increased to 100 kilowatts. In addition, the vertical trap antenna was replaced by a vertical dipole with end capacitance and coil, which was supported by a 115 meter high freestanding wooden tower. This tower was created by adding heights to one of the two wooden towers that carried the T antenna. The second tower was dismantled and rebuilt as a transmission tower for the Königsberg-Amalienau transmitter . This was replaced in 1940 by a guyed 151 meter high round steel lattice mast with a square cross-section, insulated from the ground. In addition, a triangular antenna and a 50-meter-high round steel mast insulated from the ground went into operation in the same year. On January 31, 1945, most of the facilities were destroyed by the retreating German Wehrmacht . The underground passages were filled in because of water ingress.
After the Second World War , a transmitter of the Soviet foreign service is said to have been operated on the station area for some time . In the eighties the system was used to interfere with the signals of the foreign radio station " Wolna Europa ". In addition, a local program was broadcast on a community wave with low power until the mid-1990s .

Today from the radio mast, which is 83 meters high, the program of Radio Maryja is broadcast on 106.2 MHz with 10 kW ERP and the TV program TVP 1 on 527.25 MHz with 200 kW ERP.
The area is apparently also used for military purposes.
