Sandy Heath (Central Bedfordshire, England) Full Freeview trans

So, who do I really complain to when a transmitter drops power so much that I lose signal?

It *appears* (I am no expert) that the reason I have had no 5*, 5 USA, ITV2+1 etc for months now is that the managers of the Sandy Heath transmitter decided on an order of magnitude decrease in power would not be a problem. Well, for cb2 1re (the little white patch west of cambridge) that drop is enough to lose all channels on that Mux.

Switchover (maybe the shutdown of the Madingly transmitter?) has resulted in a significant loss of access to TV services, often for weeks at a time. There is clearly no hardware faults, as the signal appearance/loss are months apart!

I am at a loss, I am just miles away from a major technicality (Cambridge) and have huge holes in my tv schedule!

Tips?
