Ordered by the date of change, the list below shows all the UK’s main Freeview transmitters, plus about 300 Freeview Light ones. For each one is a list of the channel frequency numbers that have or will be changing.- The columns show the various multiplexes, for example PSB1.
- The numbers in the table are the broadcast channel number, for example 42
- OFF service being removed
- tbc means I don’t have the final new allocations.
- For simplicity, where a transmitter changes more than once, only the last date changed is shown here.
- 48 possible need for a filter when 5G services start.

Teresa Edwards: If you get in touch with Restore TV (organisation funded by the mobile networks to deal with this kind of problem, see link below) they should be able to send out a free plug-in filter to block the interference.

Teresa Edwards:
Just digging a little bit more - how recently has this problem arisen?
If it's only the last two weeks, my next question would be which TV region does your mum get, is it London, or is it South East/Meridian?
Is the aerial pointing West or approximately SouthEast, my guess is it may be South East in which case the aerial is pointing at the Bluebell Hill transmitter.
The Bluebell Hill transmitter has been on Planned Engineering the last 2 weeks with "Possible effect on TV reception - Possible Pixelation or flickering on some or all channels"
So the problems may improve when the engineering has been completed, BUT
That said, IF reception is much much worse when it rains, it sounds like there could be a problem with the aerial installation, this does not sound just like Mobile Phone mast interference, even if it were, it would not get worse when it rains.
The phone mast - exactly how new is it?
It may not be 5G but may still be operating in the 700MHz band which could give TV reception problems. That said, normally when masts like this appear, "Restore TV" frequently write to nearby and potentially affected households, but even if your mum has not heard from them it's still worth contacting them.
Bear in mind if the aerial installation is the problem, you'd need to contact a reliable aerial installer.
