When the PSB changeover from to takes place in 2013, my already marginal through my group C/D will degrade considerably. I know I'll need an aerial (and head amp possibly). As this will affect many people my area, does anyone know if there's financial available to meet the cost of this upgrade,

Norman Ansell: UK's trade view suggests that the percentage of locations covered within your national grid square will - after all changes are made across the country - go down from 94% to 92%, for 99% of the time. For 50% of the time, it actually increases from 97% to 98% of locations served.

The 'Good' threshold, for which the planners consider the square to be served, is 70% of locations for 99% of the time. So really, it's not that significant.

Mike/Brian, Thanks for the info. My problem is local trees and the fact that my location () is located in the vale of Berkeley where the lie of the land drops 80 metres below that to the South (and ). Signals do get through under ideal conditions (cold dry night in winter) but on a summer evening when the trees are wet and in full leaf things get marginal. Maybe it's time to get .
Thanks again chaps - N

Catherine Meek: If the question relates to a another BBC One and ITV replacing your native ones then the reason must be that your has tuned to another . Knowledge of your location, and possibly transmitter your aerial faces, would allow a suggested workaround which may involve unplugging the aerial lead during the part of the that the unwanted transmitter broadcasts.
