Blåbärskullen transmitter
Blåbärskullen transmitter is a facility for FM/TV-broadcasting at Sunne in Sweden, which went in service on September 2, 1960. It used as antenna tower a 323 metres tall guyed mast, which was at time of completion one of the tallest structures in Sweden. On December 27, 1979 the top of the mast with the TV-broadcasting antennas fell down as result of an excessive build-up of ice. Afterwards a 72 metres tall temporary mast was erected, while the old mast was now 274 metres tall.
