Kerri: Basic answer is no. Brecon is served by a small local transmitter, and there are many of these located around Mid and South Wales, this is because of it's mountainous geography. All are ultimately supplied with a signal from Cardiff. Unfortunately when the digital change happened the commercial broadcasters did not subscribe to the additional equipment necessary to receive their channels, we were left therefore with a basic 'Freeview Lite' service. Unfortunately there looks like no going back on the situation because of costs. For full services in Brecon the only other option is Freesat but this will require a decoder and dish. Hope this is of help.
