Want to know which transmitters will carry extra Freeview HD?
Brian Butterworth published on UK Free TV I am working on integrating this information into UK Free TV. Note there are a number of sites with restricted radiation patterns. This information may take a couple of days to generate coverage maps for.
I have used the "Nominal ERPs" (the power levels most likely to be employed in practice by the licensee).
Taken from Ofcom - Award of the 600 MHz spectrum band - it's bad news for The Wrekin and Sudbury, but good news for:

Is see that Crystal Palace is listed as expected but was wondering if Reigate transmitter, which is a relay of Crystal Palace, will have the additional HD channels?

mazbar: I have been pointing this out for the whole of the last decade! And with the 700 clearance it is going to be the case even more so.

PJH: no relays. The BBC have already said their streams will be duplicated on satellite.

Chaz_001: the list above is complete. Reigate won't get these services.

Scarborough
No Oliver's mount :(
Is there any chance of it being added at a later date do you think, or is this list it?

It's OK, I've entered all the patterns.
They now show up on the relevant transmitter pages.

No Llandonna then?
Oh, well......
Might be the basis for a campaign to ensure BBC4 has more coverage on the existing multiplex.
