I like it!
To me it makes much more sense to tag telecom=BTS (Base Transceiver
Station, see [1
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_transceiver_station>]) than
man_made:antenna + antenna:type=whatever.
But BTS is not indicated as possible value for telecom=* in the wiki...
I am not advocating the use of man_made=antenna with or in place of some
other tag that already incorporates an antenna e.g man_made=telescope,
telescope:type=radio
I am saying that at present there are mappers using less than precise
tags with man_made=antenna and that needs to have some guidance in order
not to end up with a bigger mess than it already is.
Cheers,

Hi all
It would be great to use telecom=* instead of man_made or communications
Antennas is a difgicult topic to address in osm since there can be
many of them at the same time. They should be distinguished from mast
and supports since antennas are only devices
All the best

I’d been thinking about this lately while working on towers and
radio telescopes.
Towers can be tagged with tower:construction =dish and this is
rendered as “satellite” dish sending or receiving waves, in the
Openstreetmap-Carto style.
Radio telescopes are now rendered as well.
But there are some satellite uplink dishes mistagged as radio
telescopes.
Other tags in use are man_made=communications_dish and
man_made=satellite_dish
But neither is very well documented, I recall.
I’d be happy to have a better way to tag these dishes.

I was looking at the wiki for antennas
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dantenna
I made some additions to the definition and added some
photos etc.
It is still rather sparse. I'd like to be able to further
define what the antenna is.
I have some pictures of various antennas in my area. Well,
they're pictures of masts but the
antennas are sometimes discernible. Any idea for a good
place to dump them so they can
contribute to antenna/mast examples that people can add to
wiki pages as appropriate?
Worst case, you want me to mail them to you and you can
decide what to do with them?
