Stephanie: just to be clear.. You do know that you can click and double click on every single map symbol on this site? Single click does coverage and basic information. Double for a full page of technical information!

@Briantist almost certainly mixed polarisation, as is usual for FM broadcast stations.

Steve P: The code that generates them is on the server, hence they appear after a post. I could do something with AJAX if you though they would be useful during message composition?
I find them quite fascinating.
I should be pleased that most who post here seem to be "highly educated".
I would also like to be able to use Transactional analysis too, but I can't find a suitable library.

Edward Cunningham: Hi. Without a subscription the Sky+HD boxes revert to being non-recording HD boxes.
Given that anyone who doesn't have Sky can take advantage of the "free dish and box offer", there isn't much to be gained for someone unless they have a use for a non-recording but otherwise HD Sky box.

Colin Knight: Hi.
I think you've misunderstood how DAB radio works.
The services provided on "single frequency networks": If you can get a signal from more than one DAB transmitter, these are combined in the receiver to improve reception.
The receiver has no way of knowing which mast provided the signal, as it is the same bit-stream on the same frequencies.

If you are going to modify your aerial to deal with trees, the most sensible option is to use a longer pole.
