Freeview reception at BD6 3SU

For reliable and stable Freeview reception, you need an unobstructed path between the TV aerial on your roof and the digital TV transmitter. The map below shows the transmitters predicted to provide a signal at this location.

You can click on any transmitter symbol to show the coverage area as a green overlay on the map. Double click on a transmitter symbol to go to the transmitter information page.

You can also view the ten closest potential '4G-at-800' mobile phone masts within 1.5km of the selected location - these masts may be used for 4G-at-800 mobile broadband services from 2013-2015.

Dave Lindsay: Thanks for the reply Dave, but I don't think that's it as was perfect this morning without me taking any action.

David: If your getting '', then your either getting nothing or a signal so low that the tuner isn't bothering with it.

You may not feel David's excellent advice is applicable, so here is another one. Your is attached to your TV by a thin (6mm?) which is exposed to all weathers, and is constantly under pressure from the wind, rain, etc. Eventually, somethings got to give, and perhaps a small break or crack in the waterproofing on a connection appears. Thats OK when its dry, but during the night moisture condenses and gets into that small crack, and kills the signal. In the morning, the moisture dries out and you've got your signal .

Check the signal strength - if its really low, then the aerial system is marginal (but perfectly fine) until some thing happens. Your just 11km from (assuming thats the your using), so you should be getting a stonkingly strong signal.

I have recently moved into a house and had a coaxial installed in every room.
We have in two rooms and just tv's in two other rooms.
the on the freeview tv's are breaking up on regular occasions and i wonder if it is the digital coaxial cable and should i change it to coaxial?
Many thanks.

Steve: I'm not sure what ' coax' even is - its all the same stuff, although sat. stuff is going to be WT100, etc - just better than the cheapy nasty stuff you might find at B & Q (ATV has a whole bit about coax). Leave the coax were it is.

Have a look at the digital UK link, etc. Your just 8km from the Bluebell , whcih ordinarly would mean your getting far too much signal (search for 'too much of a good thing' on this site). On the other hand, DigitalUK thinks your recpetion could be patchy for certain mux'es. Could you find out which transmitters those TV's are tuned into, and what the signal strength is across the muxes? I cant really check the terrain (it just brings up Roucefall), but I'm sure Dave Lindsay or JB38 would be more.

Steve : Although being located at just over 5 miles away from the transmitter, the terrain indicator reveals multiple obstructions to the path from said transmitter starting at around 1.75 miles prior to your particular area, this being a possible reason for your problem.

Taking this fact into consideration, if at all possible, you should try and make one or two enquiries with others in your immediate area to find out if problems of a similar nature to your own are also being experienced elsewhere, if they are, then this will you wasting time searching for something which is effectively outwith your control.

That said though, you should carry out a signal strength / check on the BBC1 and ITV1 stored in your TV or box for the purpose of ensuring that the tuner has not stored Freeview channels from rather than Bluebell Hill, Crystal Palace which uses lower channel numbers, therefore being scanned first by your tuner, indicated as also being receivable in your location albeit with a somewhat less reliable signal.

Bluebell Hills channels being : 46 (BBC1) - 43 (ITV1) - 40(HD) - 45 - 39 - 54 - 32

Crystal Palace : 23 (BBC1) - 26 (ITV1) - 30 (HD) - 25 - 22 - 28 - 33 - 35

Since the change of numbers I have tried re-tuning our TV twice but still cannot get 5 USA. The channel 21 slot says VIVA only available in the day. Please, we watch 5 USA a lot, or did until recently and we miss it.

Sharon Allbrighton: 5 USA is broadcast on the COM4 as is ITV3. Rather than just retuning your TV, try carrying out a reset on it first, this also known as "Manufacturers reset" / "Default setting" / "First time installation" etc.

By the way, 5 USA is on EPG21 and with VIVA being on EPG74.

I have recently moved to a house on top of a hill in but is surrounded by trees which are now in leaf. There is no and is not an option here. is intermittent with a pixelating . My is apparently from or which I know has had problems. The trees belong to a golf course. Would an be of any use? should I extend the pole? Any ideas?

An is very unlikely to as it would seem that your comment about the trees is most significant. Possibly resiting the so that is can 'look' past the trees might help, or maybe a longer pole so that it looks over the trees - but that may become a problem again as the trees grow taller.

If you provide a post code, or that of a very near shop perhaps, then the and topographical maps can be used to ascertain the locality of trees, hills, etc and maybe determine which is a suitable for you.
