The position is our conversion of Ofcom's grid reference SD60267038 from OSGB36 to WGS84 [V]. Ofcom publish no latitude and longitude for television sites. The transform is verified rather than assumed: on the 3,403 radio records that carry both, it reproduces Ofcom's own coordinates to within 0.1 m.
