Mike Dimmick: Storeton Wales is, as you mentioned horizontally polarised. It is intended as a "regional correction" transmitter for viewers living in the North Wales coastal area who would otherwise only be able to view English services from Winter Hill. The COM muxes are received direct from Winter Hill. A similar arrangement exists in Derby where a relay transmitter sited in Littleover transmits East Midlands BBC1 and ITV1 to viewers in the Allestree and Chaddesden areas who have to receive their tv signals from Sutton Coldfield. The line of site to S/C from the target area is similar to that to the Littleover relay which uses horizontal polarisation, enabling reception on aerials beamed on S/C.

this transmitter seems to be the reason why we get tuning problems with winter hill. Sorry but we don't want regional Welsh channels in England, especially foreign language
