James Luke: Transmitter sites are owned by Arqiva.

The full complement of channels are never likely to broadcast from Carnmoney Hill and 1,000 plus small relays.

The broadcasters who hold the licences for the multiplexes that don't transmit from Carnmoney consider it not worth their while to do so. They operate purely for profit and have no "Public Service" obligation under the law.

It is therefore not down to the transmitting station owner that the Commercial broadcasters don't wish to transmit.
