Profiles for the path from Belmont to various locations around Howden,
just north of Goole, taken from Megalithia and Mr Jive's excellent
terrestrial TV calculator, show some degree of disagreement.

Mr Jive's path is not obstruced whereas Mr Megalithia's is. It seems
that Mr Jive has the transmission height at 434m ASL whereas Mr
Megalithia has it at 376m ASL, and that makes all the difference.

Who is right, please?

According to the Arqiva web site the mast is 335.6m, the base is
121m a.o.d. - so neither! Having said that it used to be 1250ft
and I thought they had taken 150ft off it - which is 335.6 as
near as - but mb21 shows it as 353m which calculates to about
1150ft so ...........................

If you go on www.arqiva.com and select Sitefinder at the lower
right, register (its free) and you can find out anything you need
to know about any broadcast Tx site in the UK (and a few more
besides.)
