<p>I like it!</p>
<p>To me it makes much more sense to tag telecom=BTS (Base
Transceiver Station, see [<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_transceiver_station" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">1</a>])
than man_made:antenna + antenna:type=whatever.<br>
</p>
<p>But BTS is not indicated as possible value for telecom=* in the
wiki...</p>

thinking about this lately while working on towers and radio
telescopes. <br>
<br>
Towers can be tagged with tower:construction =dish and this is
rendered as “satellite” dish sending or receiving waves, in
the Openstreetmap-Carto style.<br>
<br>
Radio telescopes are now rendered as well.<br>
<br>
But there are some satellite uplink dishes mistagged as radio
telescopes.<br>
<br>
Other tags in use are man_made=communications_dish and
man_made=satellite_dish<br>
<br>
But neither is very well documented, I recall.<br>
<br>
I’d be happy to have a better way to tag these dishes.<br>

<div>I have some pictures of various antennas in my

<div>antennas are sometimes discernible. Any idea for
a good place to dump them so they can</div>
<div>contribute to antenna/mast examples that people

<div>Worst case, you want me to mail them to you and
you can decide what to do with them?</div>
