Freeview is on a very sad decline.
I'm trying to get this site back into shape.
Would a "contact your MP" function be useful - based on your Freeview transmitter?

Help with Freeview, aerials?

a whole stack of spam again!
You really do need to fix this.
It seems to me that the "Your site" field, which is hardly ever used legitimately, should be removed.
That would lessen the incentive to post this trash.

Interesting point in the post above.
I see we have some spurious old posts coming up in the "Your comments" !!

Having checked a few transmitters, the automated posts from "Transmitter engineering" appear to have disappeared.

I thought the email system might have got broken again but one turned up this morning saying there was 787 new comments! :o
Maybe some connection with the spurious old comments that appeared on the page a few days ago.

Chris.SE: I guess it must be counting the spam for the total. I will endeavour to fix it...

I think what nobody was meaning was the fact that the box was there was an encouragement for spammers to fill it in and post whilst we of course understand that it's optional. BUT is there any real need for it? If there's a good reason for a poster to want to identify their website, surely they can include the url in their post?
