France (near St Emilion)
Hi.
My guess is France Info which runs 100kW on 1206kHz Medium Wave.
see:
http://www.chowdanet.com/markc/EMWG-2004A.pdf
The system looks similar to the type used by the IBA for some of its MW
broadcast installations in the 70s/80s. They were cheaper to install
than a 4-tower array!
In such an array the tower is the driven element and the sloping wire
acts as a reflector.
73,
Phil, GJ4CBQ.
Also Eric confirmed the installation posted by SM2EKM on Towertalk:
