In fleet we have received the new channels (hannington transmitter). However the signal is continually breaking up. Before today we did not receive any of the channels, so turning on of that mux at Hannington has worked but I hope that it is going to be turned up at some point.
The BBC mux is almost perfect, doesnt break up anywhere near as much

Tony: Yes, SDN is now showing at full power (25kW) at the top of the page.

Tony: This is all governed by trying not to interfere with the Guildford transmitter. The old digital aerials at Hannington only fire to the west, north and south (actually a little to the west of north and south), because most of the digital services were assigned the same channel as a Guildford analogue service and therefore would destroy Guildford analogue, for some viewers, if allowed to fire to the east.
All the COMs are broadcasting at a maximum 25 kW in some direction. Just not your direction.
Last night, as part of the first part of switchover, Guildford low-power Mux 1 was switched off. This allowed low-power Mux 2, previously on C44, to move to Mux 1's old channel C49, to clear C44 for Hannington's use. C44 at Hannington is ArqA - this transmission has now moved to the omnidirectional antenna at the top of the mast, so you should now be able to receive it.
The assignment of which service got which frequency did change a few times over the years - but it's definitely ArqA on C44, not SDN, which remains (with ArqB) on the restricted antenna until 18 April.

Hannington reception problems finally cured by Crystal Palace DSO:
Since Hannington DSO I have suffered from continuous multiple channel pixellation and audio interference. Following this morning's Crystal Palace DSO and a re-tune I can, at last, receive stable Freeview inc BBC South and ITV Meridian. I simply re-tuned without doing anything to the rig therefore the problems can only have been the result of Hannington service provision, which is is not really acceptable especially since location is only 097/12 from the Tx.
Thank goodness that nonsense is over. I hope other people's reception problems in the Hannington easterly sector are similarly resolved.
