Judith Bufton: Your most likely transmitter is Chesterfield, which doesn't broadcast Frontrunner. Emley Moor is a possible alternative although you would need a different aerial and the signal will be weaker.

Richard: Given that David posted on the page for the Kent multiplex, I think it's fairly obvious what he meant.
David: The transmitter listings on this site are derived from data published by Ofcom, so no doubt that new transmitters will appear once Ofcom have published their transmission parameters and Briantist has had chance to load the updated data into the site.

graham: Sound Digital have not made any claim of 95% coverage in Kent. The 95% relates to the proportion of households and roads which can now receive the Kent local multiplex, which includes stations such as BBC Radio Kent, Heart, Gold, Smooth, Capital and KMFM.

Diane: Have you checked all the cables and connections or done anything else to try and improve things? Please provide a postcode so we can see where you are in relation to the transmitter.

Caroline Brown: Whether you use AV1 or AV2 shouldn't matter as long as you select the correct input on your TV. The aerial cable has to connect from the socket on the wall to the aerial input on the box. If you are still struggling, please let us know the make and model of your Freeview box so someone can assist further.

s breakspear: No, there won't be any further multiplexes carrying additional HD channels added to Malvern (or any other transmitter which doesn't already have them). The COM7 and COM8 multiplexes which carry additional HD and SD channels are temporary services which are broadcast from 30 main transmitter sites covering approximately 70% of UK households and are expected to close in 2020.

s breakspear: It is expected that the remaining multiplexes will switch to DVB-T2 transmission mode which is already used by PSB3, COM7 & COM8 which will provide enough bandwidth for the channels currently on COM7 & COM8 to move to other multiplexes. BBC channels will also go HD only at this point. However no date has been announced for this change so far.

L.Price: There is a transmitter engineering notice on the previous page dated Monday 12th December warning of possible service interruptions for Ludlow so it seems likely that the outage is due to planned engineering work. Do not attempt to retune, your channels will return when the work is completed.

Colin: Presumably because they don't have a deal with Virgin to carry their channel on cable. Suggest you try asking the broadcaster for a definitive answer.
