Can someone advise, please?
I have a wideband antenna pointing at Sudbury, but there is only a basic hd service. I noticed my neighbour has started using Tacolneston, as it has more hd channels. Is it worth repositioning my antenna at Tacolneston or will this service be closed down to make way for 5G?
Thanks for any help.

As you mention, the extra HD multiplex (COM7) which is transmitted on UHF C55 as an SFN, is broadcast from Tacolneston but not Sudbury.
See Channel listings for Industry Professionals | Freeview for which channels are carried on which multiplex.
The current Licence for COM7 expires at the end of June 2022 when it is scheduled to close as the frequency is set to be used for 5G. However, when I last checked, EE is the MNO supposedly getting the frequency in the recent auction and they may give 3 months notice that they wish to start using the frequency in which case COM7 would close before June 2022. No-one is currently expecting any extension of the licence if the frequency isn't needed by then. EE will need to develop base-station equipment to use SDL which is the type of usage allocated and suitable handsets/phones will need to be available for it to be fully used, this is not expected to happen in a hurry, so it's currently anyone's guess as to the precise date of closure.
Your predicted reception from Tacolneston in your locale is very variable to poor for most of the multiplexes, especially ArqA and ArqB but surprisingly not always for COM7! I would check exactly how well and reliably your neighbour is receiving Tacolneston. I would expect that reception may not be reliable under adverse weather conditions especially if there is "Tropospheric Ducting" (often, but not always, accompanies high pressure) and likely to be more frequent as a result of climate change.
If you can reposition the aerial yourself, it may be worth trying, but I would doubt it would be worth paying an aerial contractor to do it as we can't be certain how soon COM7 will close.
Follow the Freeview link above and follow their link entering your postcode and house name/number to see your predicted reception.

Hi - Can someone help? - I use Sky free-to-air - just purchased a replacement box with ITV set to Central.
I would like to change it to West Country. I have followed the Services>add channels> change frequency etc method but receive a "No signal found" at the end. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas please? Rob

rob.S: Are you looking for West Country SD or HD? ITV have removed a number of SD regions from satellite so if you are using an SD box you will left with either Central, Meridian, London, Granada, Wales, Border Scotland, Channel Islands, UTV or STV. ITV now broadcast all regions in HD, except Channel Islands and Border Scotland. If your Sky box has a viewing card, it should get the correct BBC/ITV region for the viewing card's postcode automatically (even if the subscription has been cancelled).

Thanks for responding so quickly. As my 'new' box is a rather ancient model, I am sure it is SD. The box does have a viewing card. The box it replaced, with same card. was receiving West Country yesterday - perhaps I should give the new one a little time? - or throw myself on Sky's mercy for a replacement! Rob
