You are still showing my area of Wetherby, LS22 6RN as 'no green' and this is clearly an error as I have always had 100%quality signals from any DVB-T(and recently DVB-T2)receivers on my LOFT antenna even before DSO1 and DSO2. I don't think your green area has actually changed since DSO2 took place.

Mike Davison: As no-one moved the mast at switchover the only change to the coverage map was the signal levels in the coverage area.

Before - http://ukfree.tv/predictB….png

After - http://ukfree.tv/predictB….png

There are always limits as the I have used the "20m above ground level" for the aerial calculations.

Can anyone help please. I live in a first floor flat and run 3 TVs off the main aerial with a splitter connection. This has worked well for over a year but over the last couple of months we have had terrible reception in the bedroom and kitchen and sometimes with no signal at all. We have renewed the cables and brought new splitter boxes but the connection in the kitchen and bedroom will not run off the splitter and I have had to plug it in everytime. Yesterday they was no reception at all on any of the channels and the same today. All the connection seem secure. Any help would be appreciated.

Sue Pullan: The issue seems to be that (I assume) that the two longer runs are proving problematic.

If you are using an unpowered splitter it means that the split isn't even. Whether this is an issue or not depends on whether the signal level(s) at its lowest is great enough to produce a picture, which it appears not to be.

Another factor is the amount of signal that is being lost in the longer runs. If it is thin flexible coax then there will be greater loss than double-screened solid core cable. The stuff you get in kits is the former because it's cheap. See:

Satellite, Television, FM, DAB, Aerial, Coaxial Cable, Plugs, Sockets, Connectors & Leads

It may be that reducing your losses in the cable runs to the kitchen and bedroom will be sufficient to give you reception back.

Sue Pullan: It could be that there is another cable running parallel or close to the aerial feeds to your bedroom that is being picked up in them and moving it away might help. For example, HDMI, USB, ethernet (computer network).

What sort of splitter are you using?

Sue Pullan do the simple tests first, connect direct to each point individually. most problems that arise from a previously working system usually indicate poor connections, either outside braiding touching centre core or poor quality cable or connectors, try using "F" connectors.

HI has anybody else noticed signal drop out lasting for a few seconds then coming back on again? it has happened a few times in the last few days twice in the last 24 plus hours, on both BBC and ITV multiplex. Postcode WN2 1sz. And I know my local transmitter is winter hill but I use this one. Is it due to the current weather conditions?
