Ingøy radio transmitter

It is located about 2 kilometres (1+1⁄4 miles) south of the village of Ingøy on the island of Ingøya in Måsøy Municipality in Finnmark county, Norway.

The current transmitter commenced service in 2000 transmitting the NRK P1 radio station and uses as antenna a 362-metre-tall (1,188 ft) guyed mast, which is grounded and fed over the guys with the radio power to be radiated.

[1] There was also a previous, unrelated transmitter at Ingøya which was built in 1911 and was mainly used to communicate with mining companies operating in Svalbard until the German occupation of Norway in 1940, after which it was taken over by the Luftwaffe.
