what does sfn mean please?
So you are saying having two transmitters using the same channels and in nearby locations does not lead to reception problems?

Thanks.
I don't think it says here that Rouncefall is now no longer light, but if they can upgrade there, why can they not upgrade Aldeburgh which has twice the power and serves a large area, thus removing our reception problems from Sudbury? Can Sudbury not have a second 'sfn?'

Thanks for all this info. Please clarify, you believe Rouncefall now transmits all channels? I have not found that info. Is it not going to cause problems having two adjacent transmitters using the same frequencies?
To get that French transmitter my aerial would have to be about 70 degrees off how it is set on Sudbury and pointing to Dover, which transmitter recently appeared but only briefly.
Tac is no use, zero reception in my situation, but aerials on it nearby, and on houses at tops of hills.
Have none of those appliances, and my aerial is some distance from neighbours.
I do not really know when signal q is 30%. I only experiment during the day in my garage. Evenings I am inside watching tv, or trying to, but 37 is the first to go.
