Winter Hill (Bolton, England) transmitter
Saturday 17 February 2018 2:05PM

According to this looks like C37 BBC4HD etc is moving to a much more powerful transmitter at Winter Hill on 31/03/18.
Am I reading this correctly?
Today I decided to spend some time investigating why my BBC4HD reception is dropping in and out. I've already remade some coax connections to no avail.
Maybe I should just wait a few weeks???

(I can see Winter Hill from the roof - BBC4HD reception drops from 54% to 0% continuously according to my Humax. Been like this most of this winter.)

Cheers,

Winter Hill (Bolton, England) transmitter

StevensOnln1: Oh that's disappointing. I was looking above at the section "How will the Winter Hill (Bolton, England) transmission frequencies change over time?". It shows C37 moving from com8 to arqB.

I have a basic aerial (plate type reflector) but it does the job as I'm in a good signal area. In fact I have to attenuate the signal because the channels on the 100kW transmitters are too strong and my Humax box stutters. The only issue is the channels on COM8 which is the lowest power transmitter.
I really don't know how to fix this issue. Any ideas?
