LEE: Basically no! as these other multiplexes would purely be used by commercial interests, and the area covered by this transmitter Vs the homes involved doesn't appear as an attractive proposition to the business types that would be paying the running costs.

LEE: The TV Licence pays for BBC services only, and all transmitters provide all BBC television and radio channels.

We live close to Church Stretton, SY6 7JA. Our Freeview has been completely down all evening, (no channels available). We seem to be affected by the Oakley Mynd transmitter and have had variable Freeview reception since the weekend. Freesat is working fine, which is our back up.
