Emley Moor (Kirklees, England) transmitter
Wednesday 21 September 2011 9:54PM

Living in Churwell area of Morley, never had a digital signal, but on 7th September BBC channels fired up. We were hopeful that today the rest would come on board, but instead we now have none again?!?!?

Any thoughts?

Brian: Interesting read, thanks. We have a very simple aerial, can't recall perfectly, but is a type B or something, supposedly correct for Emley Moor.

Looking at the signal strength, we are on about 50%, with poor signal, but we are tuned in to UHF 59 (Yorkshire - sure i used to say Emley Moor in old house?) - looking above this would seem to make little sense - or are the C numbers above different?

I do know the aerial is polarised incorrectly for Emley Moor, read that a couple of days ago, and looks to point the wrong way too... so with channel seeming to be wrong, I think we may be getting a poor signal from another transmitter, that had some breathing room over the last 2 weeks??
