Emley Moor is Arqiva's flagship transmitting station, it carries ALL the muxes, including COMs 7 & 8 and a local TV mux, all at full power.
If you are not getting the full services, then either you have a fault in your antenna system or are not tuned to Emley but a small low power relay. From your partial postcode you could be tuned to Skipton, Cowling or several others. Please provide a FULL postcode and if possible the direction your aerial is pointing, and from that we can work out which relay you are watching.
You might be able to get Emley if you have your antenna set up for it, but you might find Keighley an easier option, which will give you more channels, but not all.
Also, remember that you will only get the HD channels if your equipment is fully HD capable, not just 'HD ready'

My mum's tv shows "no signal" on all channels in the morning but generally comes on around 11am. & is ok for the rest of the day.
Is this due to engineering works? Or a fault? I've retuned the tv, which is new, but no improvement.

Helen Wyatt: Engineering work doesn't take place every date and if there was a fault it would have been fixed within a few days (usually within hours). Retuning will never fix a loss of signal and is the worst thing to do as retuning whilst no signal is present will simply delete all the channels which were already correctly tuned. This sounds more likely to be caused by electrical interference being emitted by something which is operating before 11am. Check around your mum's home and with her near neighbours for anything operating on a timer (central heating pumps are a common cause).

The signal from the transmitter has dropped since mid October, e.g. we are not getting ITV on 3. It's happening on all TVs from different aerials in the house.
What are they doing to fix it?

J Stewart: The transmitter has no reported problems, and certainly any problem that lasted for weeks would get widely noticed. Its probably not the transmitter, but its very likely your system.
If its happening to all the TV's in the house, then find the common link - possibly a distribution box, etc. You say you have various aerials, but are they actually feeding any TV's, or is it just one?
BTW - to see what your reception should be like, we need a postcode, which you can just put into the site - it will bring up lots of useful information.

Here in York,(YO1 6HH) using signals from Emley Moor via our roof-top aerial we have been experiencing very bad break up on most channels over the last 13 days. Often around 6pm the major channels return to a good signal. Yesterday evening we resorted to listening to the radio as we were getting break up on ALL channels. This morn ing we find a perfect signal on BBC1 but break-up on some freeview channels indicates we are not out of the woods yet. Definitely looks like engineers are involed in reducing signal strengths. Using internet signal strength problem websites we found a report the breakup of signals from Emley Moor was taking place on Monday 16th Oct (The first day we noticed the problem) The report did not state duration of the work & using the signal problem site since every thing is reported as being hunky-dory! Affects neighbours.

Colin:
There are no reported problems at Emley Moor currently and no engineering works listed either.
Have you checked with your neighbours whether they are having the same problems with Freeview reception?
The fact that things appear to return to normal at a certain time of day suggests there may be electrical interference causing the problem. Check to see if there are any timer controlled devices that turn off at about that time.
