MB21 The Transmission Gallery
Great for looking at the commercial transmission sites for FM, DAB & TV.
(when searching for a specific station just google name of station & frequency followed by MB21)

Ofcom Site Finder
Great for looking up cellular communication sites on masts or tower blocks, also gives the height of the highest GSM panels. (Not always accurate)

Frequency Finder
Great for checking where UK commericial FM stations are broadcasting from and how much power they are using. You can download the list in PDF.

UK Free TV
Like frequency finder but also gives a basic coverage map when you click on the TX on map and various other useful information.

Also great for measuring point to point distances to see how far your signal is really going.
