TV disruption: phone mast to be turned off

A METEOR mobile phone mast, believed to have disrupted scores of television signals in Mitchelstown, Co Cork, is to be switched off tomorrow.

Last week, county manager, Martin Riordan, said he was preparing a legal case against the mobile phone company and that in the interim he would ask it to switch off the mast.

His comments came as more than 50 people affected by disruptions protested outside County Hall.
