Do you know why ITV3 is not broadcast on the Aldeburgh transmitter? And if there are any plans to include it? Thanks

Jenny: ITV3 is broadcast on the COM4 multiplex which (along with COM5 & COM6) is broadcast from 80 main transmitters covering around 90% of UK households. It is not available from lite transmitters such as Aldeburgh which only broadcast the PSB1/2/3 multiplexes. You would have to ask ITV whether they have any plans to move ITV3 to their capacity on PSB2.
