My post code is GU14 7AZ, which is a block of 26 flats. The building has a common coax system fed by an aerial pointed at the Hannington transmitter; seemingly this has been chosen by most buildings nearby because of the topography. Because of the unacceptable Freeview reception using the aerial system, half of the flats have paid to have a Freesat system set up.
Q1. Are we on the correct transmitter?
Q2. When Hannington goes fully digital/Freeview, should we be able to ditch Freesat with its cable rental costs and get the full Freeview set of signals?

I live at GU147AZ close to Farnborough clockhouse roundabout. All aerials nearby are pointed to the Hannington transmitter al though other transmitters are closer. Because of the very poor reception using the aerial our block of flats have had to pay for a sat dish to be able to watch freesat. When the digital switchover happens for us in 2012, will we be able to watch freeview using Hannington or another?
