The transmission tower, which was put into use in 1959, is of the same model as the Roermond television tower. The NPO transmitters have a range of 80 km around the mast.

In 2007 the analog TV antennas were removed and the mast was shortened by 25 meters to a height of 148 meters.

In 2020 a data center has been established and the mast is owned by Cellnex (Alticom).
