2023 was the busiest year, with 24 new systems, most of them 4G. Local 5G started with Orange in November 2021; Free Mobile followed in March 2022, SFR followed in July 2023. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1998.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example SFR (3G 900 MHz) at 1807 RTE de Villedieu. 5 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

The highest support stands 82 m at Le Saussey (water tower). The median height of measured supports is 34 m.

By mast count, Granville is 5th of the 15 Manche towns that have five or more. With 7 masts for 12,510 residents, or 6 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (14).

3.5 GHz 5G is declared by Orange on all 4 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 2 of its 3 masts, Free Mobile on all 2 masts and SFR on 2 of its 3 masts.

Supports leave a gap of about 1.7 km to the east of the centre.

Nearby, Coutances (26 km to the north-east) has less 5G (80%).

Of the 7 masts in the commune, 5 of the 7 masts host at least two operators.
