The Westerglen transmitting station is a facility for longwave and mediumwave broadcasting established in 1932 at Westerglen Farm, 2 miles (3 km) south west of Falkirk, Stirlingshire, Scotland (grid reference NS868773). Four medium wave radio programmes are broadcast from the site on frequencies of 810, 909, 1089 and 1215 kHz and a long wave service on 198 kHz. There are three guyed steel lattice mast radiators on the site, which are insulated against ground. These carry combinations of the above services. There is a shorter fourth mast that carries non broadcast services.

  • Der Sender Westerglen ist eine Sendeanlage bei Westerglen Farm, 3 km südwestlich von Falkirk, einer Ortschaft ca. 50 Kilometer nordöstlich von Glasgow. In der Nähe von Westerglen befindet sich seit 1932 eine Sendeanlage für Mittelwelle. Von Westerglen aus werden vier Rundfunkprogramme im Mittelwellenbereich abgestrahlt (Sendefrequenzen: 810 kHz, 909 kHz, 1089 kHz und 1215 kHz), wofür drei abgespannte gegen Erde isolierte Stahlfachwerkmasten als Sendeantennen zum Einsatz kommen.

Ein vierter Mast von 152 Meter Höhe wurde 1980 errichtet. Er dient dem Langwellensender auf der Frequenz 198 kHz, der mit den Sendern in Droitwich und Burghead im Gleichwellenbetrieb arbeitet als Sendeantenne. Er ist eine abgespannte Stahlfachwerkkonstruktion mit dreieckigem Querschnitt und trägt an seiner Spitze zu seiner elektrischen Verlängerung eine Dachkapazität. (de)

There are three guyed steel lattice mast radiators on the site, which are insulated against ground. These carry combinations of the above services. There is a shorter fourth mast that carries non broadcast services. One of the masts carries the long wave transmission in a synchronised group with the transmitters at Droitwich and Burghead on the same frequency (until 1989 200 kHz, now 198 kHz). This mast is of guyed steel lattice construction with triangular cross-section and it carries a 'capacity hat', which increases the antenna's efficiency, at the top. The site is owned and operated by Arqiva. (en)
