TV transmitters in Cape Town

[PaulB_]

Hi all

I know that Cape Town has three main transmitters, Tygerberg, Constantiaberg, and Table Mountain. I also know of one on the side of the mountain out by Fish Hoek way, one thing I'm not sure about, is where is the Table Mountain transmitter located, as both Constantiaberg, Tygerberg, and Fish Hoek can be spotted with no effort, while I am yet to see any transmitter on Table Mountain. My father seems to think it's on the roof of the upper cable station, however I highly doubt, Sentech will run a major transmission station in such a highly busy tourist attraction, and also I don't see any pole on the top of the cable station, as is the case on Tygerberg, and Constantiaberg.

If anybody knows anything, I'll really appreciate it.

Thanks

The antennas are in fact located on the side of the upper cable car station overlooking the city, almost entirely invisible hence why they are so difficult to spot. But one you know what to look for, they are then in plain site.
