Susan: Under the law, the landlord must allow you access to Freeview, but is not required to provide it to you. So, if there is a fault or problem, you have to pay to fix it, but the landlord must allow you the access.

MR: You might want to check that the DVD player doesn't have an RF modulator...

Derek Ball: The BBC is filling in gaps in the national DAB network over the next few years, I think a new DAB transmitter at Crumhaugh Hill is planned for 2011.

Emley Moor (Kirklees, England) transmitter

Thomas: The BBC transmitter network for analogue is delivered by a multi-routed optical network. If this fails completely, then a professional (rather than a "freeview box") feed is taken from the separate optical-network that feeds the digital terrestrial system.

If THAT fails to work, the next feed is taken from the BBC satellite backup system, which is used to feed Freeview if the optical network stops working.

If the satellite backup fails then an off-air feed from another analogue transmitter would be used, but this network is disappearing as analogue regions close down.

Ken Moverley.: I'm sure that number rings a bell - sorry to say it's on this list - TVs and boxes that do not support the 8k-mode | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice . You need a Freeview box.
