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?

Hello Brian, nice to see you posting. There have been occasions in the recent past when it's not been possible to access the site, I don't know if that's when updates have been taking place or there've been too many connections (I'm assuming spam postings).
As far as "additions" go, I think most of us would prefer you try and fix some of the bugs, broken things and things out of date. Please see some of the things I've advised in the past.
Currently, some are -
On Radio, the "AM+FM stations" link goes to the "All radio stations on DAB" page and visa-versa the "DAB stations" link goes to the "All radio stations on FM and AM" page.
On Freeview -
some links in posts to Freeview (Light) transmitters, eg. today, Todmorden go to the "Full service Freeview transmitters" page.
On Main transmitter pages, the channel lists on the COM muxes aren't always complete/correct it would be helpful if they were also in LCN order.
Sometimes the Planned Engineering doesn't get to the relevant transmitter page.
Sometimes in the weekly emails, some links sometimes have spurious characters so don't work.
The Live Faults Map page All transmitters with faults and engineering | free and easy for 21 years doesn't appear to update.
There are a few other but I don't have time to find them atm, eg. a couple of transmitter pages UHF channels haven't updated correctly. I'll post here as I come across any others if that's ok.

We all have problems with the "Captcha" due to the images being so poor, can't they provide better images. Jimmy had a major problem https://ukfree.tv/extras/inreplyto/1124818
