Hello,

I'm researching a film which includes shots of aerials and I'd like to find out exactly when (ideally which year) this type of high gain aerial with large reflector (seen to the left in the attached pic) was first installed in the UK.

I don't remember seeing them before the early 2000s Freeview era, but would like the specific date.

It'd be greatly appreciated if anyone here could assist me.
