Are there any planned engineering works or unexpected transmitter faults on the Limavady (Northern Ireland) mast?

UK Free TV shows the coverage area for a radio transmitter as a coloured overlay (orange for FM, other colours for DAB) on the grey map. We have computed the coverage by combining the terrain with the official radiation pattern. A single click will select the transmitter to view the coverage for a single site, and a double click goes to a page showing full details. Click on the buttons in the right-hand corner of the map to choose from different frequencies (or multiplexes for DAB).

Can you advise if there are ongoing works on DAB transmitters in Northern Ireland. My reception in the car has gone from great to awful especially in my local area where I can see the limavady transmitter and cant get a signal. Or maybe I need a new radio?

I've created a petition to ask Bauer Media to keep Planet Rock nationwide - https://t.co/QYvu1oG6oL Could you help me to reach a wider audience please? A lot of listeners won't realise until it's gone

Bob:

It may depend on exactly where you are in Dungiven. A full postcode would help. The area seems generally flat terrain and doing a random check you ought to be able to get the main BBC National multiplex 12B and a Commercial multiplex 12D carrying BBC Radio Foyle and BBC Radio Ulster as well as a small number of commercial stations.
This from both the Limavady and Strabane transmitters, neither having any current reported faults BUT Limavady does currently have Planned Engineering, so it's possible it may be on reduced power.

With a clear line of site to the north, can you not get a signal on your car DAB? And likewise to the WSW anything from Strabane?
