Who knows - but probably they were rearranging an aerial or changing something round, or mending a bust bit.

Brev: I would imagine that Arqiva do have such monitoring equipment on their mast, but I doubt if they would make it available, but you could ask them. Contact Us - Corporate Arqiva .

jordan: Most likely to be BBC1 East Midlands.If so it would have disappeared about 12.35am for DSO. Brierley Hill is on C57 but some other relays use C58 in the West Midlands.
