Just been randomly browsing around, as one does at 4am in the morning, and stumbled upon this: http://www.orange.co.uk/transmittermasts/home.html
Now if you've already seen it then shh, don't deprive me of my moment of discovery. Basically, Orange have taken the time to put together a nice little guide about how a mobile network works, how radio in general works, the history of radio.... etc etc, you get the idea. The pages include observations such as their 3G network requiring an extra mast for every four extisting masts in operation.
Check it out! It's an unnecessary but welcome guide that every network should boast.
Edit: You will most certainly want to try the FAQ: http://www.orange.co.uk/transmittermasts/faqs/
