Mast Safety question

[Anonymous]

We have constructed a new multi-storey buidling close to an existing mobile telephone mast, and wish to check on the safety of it for any one using or working on the new building. The first stage is to establish which of the networks place antennae on the mast. We would then like to ask the relevant operator(s) technical information about the antennae such as the number and type of antennae on the mast, the maximum radiated power and maxium effective radiated power from each of them and the antenna gain.

How can we get this information about any O2 equipment on the mast, and any other operators they allow to share usage of it? OFCOM no longer provide an up to date map shwoing the name of the operator on each mast, and instead advise members of the public to approach the operators directly.

@MI5 Yep !!! but as a developer surely you would do your home work before construction started and the local planning office will know the answer as they should have it on record.

As long as the local council got their "bung" they wouldn't care (allegedly)

@MI5 just done a search on your mast data link above for my postcode and zoomed into my local o2 mast and orange mast the only 2 on the hill and the pin pointing of other company's mast and combined masts is inaccurate as the o2 / ctil mast is on the o2 pin and the EE mast should be on the orange pin etc lol see screen grab below

Ah yes, but as a guide it may save the OP wasted phone calls......
