kieran r: That indicates Mux B on Hannington, can you receive BBC1 (Mux Ch50) or ITV1 (Mux Ch43)?
But as previously requested, could you please indicate the model of box you are using.
I had slight trouble with cross checking on your previous postings for purposes of gathering technical info, as they appear to have been made under different headings.

kieran r: A booster will make matters worse - Freeview signals: too much of a good thing is bad for you | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice - your channel number allocation problem is down to not clearing the channel list out before scanning - do My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice please.

I live in the SN6 area and in spite of all the theory I can only receive decent Freeview signals from Hannington. Freeview reception is almost, but not quite, perfect. Several aerial engineers have visited my house and have confirmed that I cannot receive a satisfactory signal from Oxford, even after its switchover, theoretically the best for my area. Am I correct in thinking that once the Hannington switchover occurs next year my signal will be at least as good as at present or will something nasty happen to the transmitter which will cause the Freeview signal to deteriorate at my location? (which is in any case reckoned a "very poor" one for Hannington).

Briantist: Thanks for your comment. My postcode is SN6 7QA. The Oxford transmitter is approx 25 miles NE from my house and the house is at the foot of a hill about 50-100' high in that direction. On the other hand the nearest hills of any size in the Hannington direction are the Lambourn downs, about 10 miles away. Does that help?

Norman: The predictions say that you should be using Mendip as an alternative transmitter. You will not get strong enough signals from Hannington.

Briantist: Thanks. Forgot to mention - I actually live in a dip between two hills - one to the NE and one to the West, so the Mendip signal suffers the same fate as the Oxford one - it flies a hundred feet above me. Ah well, it looks like Freesat here we come! Bye-bye Dave and bye-bye Yesterday. Will just wait and see until next February about Hannington and then dip into my pocket if, as now seems likely, the signal gets worse.
