By providing a full postcode (such as W1A 1AA), national grid reference (for example SE123456) or latitude, longitude pair (like 54, -0.5) this page will provide a map, terrain plot and detailed information of the location showing the UK and RoI television transmitters that it is possible you receive Freeview, Freeview HD, Youview, BT TV and Saorview from.
(Don't know your postcode? Find it at Post Office Postcode finder).
UK Free TV uniquely shows you transmitter coverage maps, aerial to transmitter terrain plots, the closest 10 mobile phone masts (for possible 5G-at-800 interference) as well as tabulated information (sorted by direction, by received signal strength, by frequency, by service names or by transmitter name).

These predictions are based upon a rooftop aerial and depend on the suitability of the aerial, the distance to the transmitters, the power of their signals, the postcode area, and local terrain.Thursday, 27 August 2015

stef: Your problem is possibly connected with the fact of a "possible weak signal" notification having been posted on the planned engineering page, that said in the notification being applicable as of today.

My Freeview just went off. All channels. I have checked my aerial connection and even changed the lead for another one and I have done a full scan. I am sharing a communal aerial on the roof of the building.

Lesley: Your first course of action should really have been to ascertain if the problem was also being experienced by others in the apartment block? or that it was purely confined to your particular installation, as when a fault occurs in a communal aerial system it usually affects a large number of residents.
If though others are also being affected, then don't do anything else for the time being, as you have already carried out the maximum that's possible within your own property, i.e: tried a replacement jumper lead.
However, if possible, it would be advantageous if one of your neighbours would let you know when the signal returns, the reason for being that the signal will not return to your TV or box, as the retune you carried out whilst the signal was down will have deleted everything stored in its tuner, further re-tuning "whilst its known that the signal is there" being the only way of recovering same.
If on the other hand others report that the signal is still down, then the matter should be reported to the building maintenance department, as they are entirely responsible for rectifying the situation.

Rob: Two stations are indicated as being receivable in your area, the first being the Freeview light (PSB only) transmitter Mynydd Bach @ 1.8 miles / 137 degrees, aerial mounted on vertical polarisation (elements up / down) to suit the polarity of the transmission.
The second being the main station of Wenvoe @ 13 miles on a bearing of 190 degrees, the aerial in this case having to be mounted horizontally.

Rob: Further to that said, the information given was from DUK's trade reception predictor, however a subsequent terrain check carried out using the info provided reveals two separate obstructions to the signal path from Wenvoe with the first being @ 6.5 miles, the second being a somewhat sizable obstruction stretching from approximately 3.5 miles out down to 1.5 miles prior to your area.
Although the latter mentioned does not look to be too promising as far as reliable reception is concerned, there is nothing to stop you trying it, if though it transpires to be a failure, then you have no option other than to use the Mynydd Bach Freeview "Light" transmitter.
Further info available if required.

I'm in TQ7 postal area and I've had no Freeview since 10:30am
I've tried factory re-install on my TV for channel scan.
Unplugged and reconnected still nothing.

sophie harris : Your area is covered by the Kingsbridge relay of the Caradon Hill main transmitter, said relay taking its feed off-air from the main transmitter, the problem with these type of set ups being, that Caradon Hill is listed on the planned engineering page under the heading of "possible weak signal", this being something which can possibly have an affect on transmissions from its relays dependent on how low the signal might be, Kingsbridge obviously being one of its relays.
The action of retuning your TV whilst the signal was down will have deleted everything stored in the tuner, therefore, you have no option other than to carry out further retunes now and again to recover that lost, as the channels will not return of their own accord.
That said, it would of course be beneficial to check with a neighbour to ascertain if they are also experiencing problems with reception, if they aren't, nor even have been, then check for loose aerial connections / jumper leads etc on your system.
