Vysílač Litomyšl – Pohodlí, Transmitter station in Pohodlí, Czech Republic.
Vysílač Litomyšl - Pohodlí is a broadcasting facility located at 425 meters (1,394 feet) above sea level in the Pardubický region. The site features multiple antenna structures arranged across the landscape to transmit radio signals across a wide area.
The facility developed as a key communications hub during the Cold War era. In August 1968, staff members at the station attempted to continue broadcasts despite the arrival of Warsaw Pact military forces occupying the country.
The station served as a communication center during the Cold War period, with equipment designed to control radio frequencies across the surrounding territories.
The facility can be seen and visited from roads near nearby populated areas. The nearest towns like Osík and Čistá provide convenient starting points for a visit to the site.
The facility uses three distinct antenna systems including rhombic arrays for long-range reception, horizontal dipoles, and folded dipoles operating on different frequency bands. Some of the larger structures are too expansive to capture in a single photograph.
