Below are all of Jack Johnson's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Also, I can only receive freeview at night. And only 30-so channels of it. I'm not in a Lite area, so I do not get this. My aerial at so50 9ns is on a wheelie bin at no. 12.

They should make Fawley a retransmitter of Rowridge, for all muxes and channels.

Hello Brian and everyone here. My aerial has only 7 out of 8 reflectors, but this SHOULDN'T change anything. But it has. When I had all 8 reflector bars, BBC News on DVB-T was watchable - a few freezes and blocks now and then, but on the whole pretty good. Now, I know how MPEG-2 works (thanks to WP and ukfree.tv and YT), but I cannot receive a DVB-T multiplex anymore. I used to have multiplex 1 and one of the COM multiplexes, but now, on C34/1, Signal Quality is poor and signal strength is low. Mind you I can no longer receive anything after the aerial damage (which also required a few clips lopped off). I still get analogue, by the way, so DSO is not here yet.
My aerial is in a strange place - on top of a wheelie bin - because that worked until the damage! The aerial is an X-Clip type.
Can anyone give me any advice on aerial placement for a damaged aerial that still receives a nearly usable analogue picture?
Should I remove the boom with the damage?
