Pohorje Transmitter

Coordinates: 46°30′53.24″N 15°34′40.01″E / 46.5147889°N 15.5777806°E / 46.5147889; 15.5777806
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pohorje Transmitter (also known as Maribor 1) is a facility for radio and TV-broadcasting in the Pohorje Mountains west of Maribor, northeastern Slovenia, 1,056 metres (3,465 ft) above sea level. It uses a 72 m (236 ft) tall lattice tower. Although this tower is designed as free-standing, it is guyed at two levels in six directions. This extensive additional guying is unusual, especially considering that the tower is not very tall and that it is situated in a forest area.
