The Problem with the digital freeview system is if you are away from home when the program that you want to see is broadcast , you an record it on VHS Video or DVD or Blu-Ray BUT if the broadcaster alters the program skedual without giving prior notice you will get a program you didn't want and you think that your set is faulty for recording the wrong program > The BBC dictate what programs you see > If they are following a sporting event they will carry on transmitting and then say other programs have been transfered to another channel BUT your recorder which has been preset cannot change by its self to another channel to compensate for the channel change by The BBC . The BBC must understand that EVERYONE does not like sport ! we have to pay them our licence fee , that does not give them the power to decide what programs we watch .

Transmitters > I live in Norfolk (Anglia Region) but there are no Anglia/BBC East transmitters that I can receive a signal from . Belmont Transmitter is where the signal comes from but Belmont transmits Yorkshire and Lincolnshire programs > Local transmitted programs like News and Current afairs are of no intrest to me > What the weather is doing on Humberside is not the same as Norwich > Would it not be possible for (in this modern day of technology) for Eastern Counties programs to be sent by cable to Belmont Transmitter , then beamed to us from there as well as Yorkshire programms ?

The roof aerial gives a good signal on channels 30 & 48 , variable signal on channels 57 , 60 & 66 but NO signal on Channel 68 .
One Bedroom indoor aerial which supplies a signal via a booster to two other bedrooms through HT Leads gives a good signal on ALL 6 Channels when there are transmitted from Belmont on Full power .

Reception varies throughout the house . Although we live in Norfolk the ONLY Transmitter that we get our Freeview Signal from Aerials is Belmont which is a minimum of 70 Kilometers away . From the roof Aerial to the west of the house we get signals on 22,25,30,53 & 60 . from the same Aerial on the South of the house we get signals on 22 , 25 & 60 . From an Indoor Aerial Upstairs on the West we get signals on 22,25,30,53 & 60 but on another Indoor Aerial on the West we can only get signals on 22 , 25 & 60 . From The BT Broadband Freeview Box obviously we can get any channel that we want .
