I can find no reference to the Storeton transmitting being off air. Please check all your aerial cables and connections.

If several of you are still not receiving any Freeview, I suggest EACH OF YOU (not just one on behalf of others) ring the Freeview Advice line and complain on 0808-100-0288.

I`m struggling to receive a good signal (including Granada) from my aerial which is aimed towards Winter Hill. Aerial is mounted outside on gable wall.
Would I receive Granada signal from the Storeton transmitter?
