Grant Franklin: To the south of Emley Moor, you can fall into the overlap area of Emley Moor and Sutton Coldfield. This is a problem at present as each uses the other's analogue channels for low-power digital.
It's why they're switching over on the same day. At switchover, high-power digital signals at each transmitter replace the analogue channels, so they no longer overlap, but if you did either one first you'd wreck low-power digital at the other.
Digital UK predicts a low chance of reliable or even 50% reliable results on Multiplex 1 at the moment (Sutton Coldfield uses this channel for Mux C). It shows no prediction for Mux 2, A, B and C which are the channels clashing with Sutton Coldfield analogue services.

On days with high pressure, the Inversion Effect can mean that Sutton Coldfield's transmissions reach as far as Yorkshire. Since Sutton Coldfield's analog frequencies are the same as Emley Moor's digital ones, the analog signal from there can interfere with your Freeview reception.
This also works the other way round; Emley Moor's transmissions spilling into Sutton Coldfield's area. After switchover, the frequencies will be different and this will no longer be an issue.
Note that there have been high winds in many parts of the UK over the past few days, so a rooftop aerial may well be blowing around and losing signal - particularly if it's mounted on a long pole.

Just rescanned my TVs and Challenge has been moving around - first to channel 20 and then to channel 800! This has happened on all my TVs. The older box also registers TPS on 801 now.
None of the other channels are affected - are they doing some tests or maintenance with this channel at Emley Moor?

Analogue BBC1 and BBC2 from Emley Moor has been down for about half an hour now, still down as of 1630. Digital is fine.
