  Mobile Phone Masts & Radio Base Stations UK
A mast is a freestanding structure (the same as a telegraph pole) which supports antennas at a height where they can transmit and receive radio waves.
If the radio base stations are too far apart, calls cannot be handed over from one area to another and are interrupted or 'dropped' when mobile users are on the move.
Shared masts are normally taller and have more impact on the environment because they have to accommodate two or more sets of antennas.

The telescopic masts are manufactured from sideways slotted aluminum tubes; the mast can be extended to any length and securely locks into place by means of a massive clamp.
When setting up the mast please pay special attention to the clamping length; the clamping length of the mast must be at least 1/6th of the extended length, or at least 1 meter at the minimum.
Mast tripods are well suited for portable applications because of the ability to quickly achieve a temporary installation.

 Prometheus Radio Project!
A mast or tower is simply the thing that holds the antenna up off the ground.
A mast is generally a single piece of pipe, while a tower is a set of interlocking pipes (typically in a triangular configuration) which can be much taller.
One thing that may be confusing is that in AM broadcasting, the antenna and the tower are the same thing - this is because AM wavelengths are so big that they require an antenna the size of an entire tower - so the solution is just to use a metal tower as the radiator.

 Strange Illnesses Blamed On Police Radio System
They have won their point and become one of the few communities in the country to be without a Tetra radio mast.
It gives officers a mobile phone and two-way radio in the same handset, and is being implemented around the country by O2 Airwave, previously part of BT, which has a £2.9bn, 15-year contract with the Home Office to supply all 51 forces in England, Wales and Scotland through a network of around 3,500 masts.
The Home Office says some symptoms suffered are, like those associated with mobile-phone masts, often related to stress caused by a perception of risk, rather than the reality; whether some people are genuinely sensitive to certain radio waves, it says, must be the subject of further research.

BBC Radio Cambridgeshire presenter Tony Gillham's upset neighbours in the village where he lives - by putting up a 40ft radio mast in his garden without planning permission.
Tony, who hosts Radio Cambridgeshire's "Gillham Gold" show on Saturday mornings, has apparently applied retrospectively for planning permission to allow the mast to stay, but is facing criticism in the village of Buckden, Cambs.
It is 40ft high and is much closer to the houses and therefore just as much a visually dominant, out of keeping and alien feature as the telephone mast proposed for (nearby) Little Paxton, which was turned down.

A planning inspector has found against North Norfolk District Council in appeals by MMO2 Airwave Ltd against the Council's refusal of planning permission for radio equipment at North Walsham Police Station, and against the enforcement notice issued by the Council ordering the removal of equipment that was later installed.
The planning inspector agreed that MMO2 Airwave Ltd should have given NNDC 'prior notification' of their addition of equipment to the mast at North Walsham - a legal condition of the work being classed as 'permitted development' (ie not requiring planning permission).
NNDC argued that MMO2 Airwave Ltd had not given prior notification and therefore did not have planning consent, which was a reason for issuing the enforcement notice in May last year.
