Heathfield (East Sussex, England) transmitter
Friday 6 November 2015 2:47PM

I am not receiving the Horror Channel (70), CBS Action (64) or Quest+1 (38) Spike (31) De ja Vue (25) Four7 (47) Yesterday (19) since last night (05/11/15). Have had no problems before this time. My aerial mounted at the rear of the property and is in good order. No changes to my TV. Retuning made no difference and same with both my Freeview HD recorders.

Have you stopped transmitting these channels? Appreciate any info you have.

Many thanks

Steve

@MikeP & jb38: Is there a way to reduce any possible interference from temperature inversion effects?

(My reception is back to normal, now) :)

This is a general enquiry. Excluding atmospheric conditions or possible interference from European based transmitters, in the last 12 month period, how often has the Heathfield transmitter (excluding planned maintenance) been responsible for poor or no signal reception?
Is there a good, authoritative source to find out the transmitter signal strength/radiation patterns for your local area?
I live in Eastbourne, abut 500 yards from the seafront and seldom, if ever, experience any of the outages reported here. Are there any known 'null', 'dead zone' or 'weak' areas in the Heathfield transmitter coverage?
Many thanks for any info.

Steve.
