Andrew 4.9m Earth Station Antenna de-installation

In January 2025 Skybrokers was contracted by Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB), headquartered in Berlin in Germany, to de-install and remove an Andrew 4.9m Earth Station Antenna from the compound. The antenna system was located on a 3-story office building in Potsdam and was disassembled in June 2025 with a three-member project and installation team. The antenna was transported to our antenna facility in The Netherlands where it will be refurbished and made available for sale.

 

Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (Berlin-Brandenburg Broadcasting, RBB), is the national broadcaster in Berlin and Brandenburg in Germany. RBB was established in Potsdam on May 1st 2003 through the merger of the SFB (Sender Freies Berlin) and the ORB (Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg). The company has studios in Berlin, Potsdam, Cottbus and Frankfurt (Oder).

Potsdam (former DDR), capital and largest city of the German state of Brandenburg, was a residence of the Prussian kings and the German Kaiser until 1918. The 1,000-year-old city is widely known for its palaces, its lakes and its overall historical and cultural significance. Landmarks include the parks and palaces of Sanssouci, Germany’s largest UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as other beautiful Palaces such as the Orangery Palace, the New Palace (Neues Palais), the Cecilienhof Palace and the Charlottenhof Palace.
