The bright green areas shown where the signal from this transmitter is strong, dark green areas are poorer signals. Those parts shown in yellow may have interference on the same frequency from other masts.

I am currently investigating Freeview. From what I have seen so far, my postcode of LN1 1LB received the best reception from Emley Moor.
I am also looking at purchasing a set top box and am hoping to get one with 'Freeview Play'.
However, the specs on the boxes I am looking at are saying that Freeview Play may not yet be available from local transmitters, so I am writing to ask whether it is available from Emley Moor at this time, and, if not, when it will be.
Many thanks for your help.

Imogen Arnold: Reception in your area is possible from both Emley Moor (@ 52mls) and Waltham (@ 31mls), aerials in your locality seen to be facing in the direction of both stations, the one chosen as providing the best signal being determined by the installer at the time of installation.

However, before dwelling on the type of box referred to, i.e: Freeview Play, you should have a read at the info provided in the undermentioned link.

Don't buy a Freeview Play box until you've read these five facts | Alphr

Emley Moor HD 101 BBC1 On some programs I get the occasional breakups, my TV Signal report shows no bit errors, max signal strength, max quality.
SD is ok and the TV built in Freesat on BBC1 HD is ok.
I'm thinking my aerial is ok from above can there be a fault at EM transmitter?

David: The clue is 'max strength' - should be nearer 75%, hence the breakup.

David: Too much of a good thing then.
I have put an attenuator of unknown value in line and strength is now 96%
Ok on present program no break up, will see what 6 pm News brings.
I have some 3 and 6 db I can add, do not want to over do it not wanting to loose weak stations such as Ch 8 Local Leeds.
Thanks
David

They seem to think it a good move from 8 t0 7, very strange as they will loose viewers ( if they have any :-) ) who maybe do not retune should they have to.

Have been to Freeview web site to find things out but failed, also in this modern age you would think they would have e-mail contact but seem not to, if they were a subscription organisation they would fail through bad communication, just saying.
