Communication Systems Yorkshire

Have you considered having your own Communication System?

The communications industry is growing...

Instead of paying for mobile telephone calls, you can using a digital radio system with repeater and cut your costs appreciably on all your fleet telephone calls.

Amateur Radio Emergency Coverage

In some instances it is known that mobile phones have blind spots in North Yorkshire, especially on the North Yorkshire Moors. Communication in these cases can only be covered using repeater stations with the use of Private Mobile Radio.

This technology has proved to be the most reliable in emergencies. Two examples of when the Amateur Repeater GB3YC based at our mast was used in emergencies are:

Fire Brigade

Ambulance

Mast Rental

Have you considered starting your own business by renting out your own repeater for taxis, skips, council gritters, and emergency services across Yorkshire and Humberside?

You can rent space for this facility. Our mast is in a prime position and space is still available for these purposes. You can rent space on the mast using your own equipment and feeders from as little as £100 per month.

Planning Permission is rarely given for new Radio Masts in this area, and it is practically impossible to get in East Yorkshire. You can overcome this issue by using a Repeater from our Mast. This can give you Two Way communication up to approximately 100 mile plus radius.

This Site can also be used for remote alarm and tracking equipment, giving you complete control to exact co-ordinates via GPS.

Also it has an up to date monitoring service that can inform the police immediately with a three minute attendance for anyone who tries to access the premises illegally, including if they try to climb over the fence or enter into the fenced area. I have been told it is the most secure site for communications in Great Britain. Also this site has the fibre optics for the internet.

The Mast was replaced in 1998 by a modern, more stronger well equipped mast, offering prospective clients the use of a 50 metres high mast with 4 working platforms. It stands 160 metres above sea level. This means that from the top of the mast you have a grand total of 210 metres above sea level.

From the ground level of the mast it is overlooks the East coast with unobstructed excellent views of Kingston upon Hull, Bridlington, Filey, Scarborough and Pickering. It has a unhindered line of sight with the Leeds Airport, Harrogate, Otley and Northallerton.
