The bright green areas shown where the signal from this transmitter is strong, dark green areas are poorer signals. Those parts shown in yellow may have interference on the same frequency from other masts.

Ken: BBC One HD is at Freeview position 50, as shown above. You need a Freeview HD (DVB-T2) receiver to see the Freeview HD service. See What does "Full HD Ready" actually mean? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

The "Digital Tick" means the box will work with DVB-T2 in 8k mode, it does not mean an EPG or Digital Text or anything else, just that you can use it view TV after switchover.

Hi

We are at S42 6RH. We have two aerials on either ends of the roof. One continues to receive digital signals. One now has nothing at all (but used to be ok). Both have old aerials. The (now failed) aerial was set up by myself by eye. It was pointed slightly to the west of the other aerial. Over the past few weeks it has changed from strong on the BBC channels and weak on ITV to the other way around - but never strong on both sets. I would welcome advice (I am more of a satellite person that aerial - but like to think that I am reasonably competent with a spanner and ladder!)

Mike Dimmick: Yes, thanks for that, as I was just really going by what I seen listed on the transmission details at the top of the page as far as Emley's HD was concerned.

Briantist: Thanks for the confirmation that Emley's BBCA is indeed on full power at Emley, that is as well as the other stations that have carried out DSO1 switches.
