GB7WB at sunset

GB7WB Turbine view of Glastonbury. Now that our highest omni antenna and wind turbine have been swapped over, the turbine can just see over the tree which has blocked most of the wind from us for such a long time. Our two towers are still at the same height, simply the head-loads have been swapped over. The omni antenna is now on our lower mast and our wind turbine is on the taller mast.

GB3WB Original Wind Turbine Sprayed. Now that the wind turbine blades have been silenced by the modifications found here we have opted for a blue camo finish in place of the original dark green option.
