The aerial installer made sure that the set scanned Mendip only by unplugging the aerial lead until the scan reached CH50. Also NIT=West Mendip too.
I notice that a lot of aerials in the neighbourhood have mast head amps and my old group aerial had (but I had no power supply for it). With this and the rust on the aerial/condition of the old lossy cable I was happy to have a new aerial installed.
That is great news about the power increase and rather than spend more money & introduce something that may only be required for a while, I'll hang on until 2012 then.

Just had a new wideband roof top aerial fitted with new cable run to replace my old group C/D contract aerial. Reception is much better but I still get the occasional glitch/freeze on the weaker COM muxes. Do you think the power increase due in 2012 will clear this issue up?
PS. I live in BS35 near the Severn Estuary so this is a weaker signal area for Mendip, with Wenvoe coming in strong even on my loft aerial! (But I'm not Welsh!)
