The symbol shows the location of the Bilsdale (North Yorkshire, England) transmitter which serves 570,000 homes. The bright green areas shown where the signal from this transmitter is strong, dark green areas are poorer signals. Those parts shown in yellow may have interference on the same frequency from other masts.
Are there any planned engineering works or unexpected transmitter faults on the Bilsdale (North Yorkshire, England) mast?

Reading
Mr Sizzle: anything's possible, but it's highly unlikely to have a significant effect. That is, I can't think of any electrical properties of sausages that would cause a change in the properties of the aerial.
If a person touches an indoor aerial, they provide a route for electrons to flow to ground. (This is the same as why you shouldn't stick your fingers into an electric socket or touch overhead cables with a stick.) This changes the properties, which is why a seemingly-well-positioned indoor aerial can stop working when you let go of it. Your string of sausages might have an effect if it touched the ground, but otherwise? No.
