BAZZER: A "red dot" was a common feature of one of the original ONdigital/ITV Digital boxes. If you have one of these, you will need to replace it - see TVs and boxes that do not support the 8k-mode | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

Jen: If you have a device with an "RF output", you need to make sure that it does not clash with any of the frequencies used for Freeview reception.
You need to use a rooftop aerial to receive a reliable Freeview service, an indoor aerial is unsuitable.
Also, can you see Two frequency interference

David: The position of the Idle transmitter means that there are no frequencies available for an interleave. Also, most homes in Bradford will use Emley Moor as their primary transmitter.
The whole point of the exercise is to have local television, and Leeds and Bradford are different cities.

Mike Dimmick: The Ofcom document, http://maps.ofcom.org.uk/.pdf provides the figure of 360,000 households for Reading on page 11. This multiplied by 2.41 gives the population figure. If it wrong, then Ofcom are wrong.
Mind you, the same table says there are 94,000 households in Plymouth and 100,000 of them use Freeview..
