Description: Erection of the Bald Hills radio transmitter, 1942. As a result of Japan's entry into World War II, and anxiety for Australia's security, it was felt that a new transmitting aerial needed to be constructed to replace the city aerials which were on the roof of strategic city buildings. The new site chosen was the Bald Hills transmitter site, one mile to the north of the Bald Hills Village. It was designed by Alf Howard and Vernon Kenna, the divisional engineer, PMG's broadcast construction department. (Description supplied with photograph.).
