This transmitter has no current reported problems

The BBC and Digital UK report there are no faults or engineering work on the Madingley (Cambridge) (Cambridgeshire, England) transmitter.

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).

simon john: You've posted on the DAB page, but I presume you are referring to DVB-T/Freeview. Madingley has only ever broadcast the Cambridge local multiplex, as Cambridge is well covered by Sandy Heath for all other multiplexes. It used to broadcast analogue Channel 5 until DSO, however it has never had any other Digital TV services.

simon john:

If you are referring to Freeview DTT, yes, it transmits the Local Cambridge multiplex on UHF C35. It was on C40 before the 700MHz Clearance programme.

It also transmits DAB National multiplexes on block 11D (D1 mux) and 12B (BBC) and the Local Cambridgeshire mux on 11C.

FM transmissions include R1-R4, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, Heart FM, Kiss & Star Radio.

I live in Hardwick very near to Madingley Mast and it hasn't had a light on it for at least three months. Is this OK or should it have a red light.???
