main image Phone mast, Dalry, Ayrshire
From the 1990s, the growth in cellular phone ownership has led to many hill-tops to be decorated with clusters of phone masts.

Competition between service providers means that for any one area a single mast is not sufficient, hence their proliferation.

Many of the most sparcely populated areas of Scotland are still outwith the range of any cellular phone service – a mixed blessing.
