@LS12 2SS. Now got communal hi-gain antenna pointing at Beecroft Hill ; it is not possible to point antenna at Emley Moor. Looking at list at top of this page, it would appear that, come 21.10.2011, will still not be able to receive all potentially available channels eg. not Dave, Film 4, Sky News, etc.
Also have communal satellite dish. If plug TV into this, via Freesat box, will I be able to get ALL free-to-air channels? ; not interested in subscription channels

BOB: I live in Bramley and my aerial is directed to Beecroft,while most are pointing to Emley Moor.
On analogue I get 'ghosting',but on Freeview,channels such as Yesterday and some of the non BBC radio channels go to 'no signal'
Should I have the aerial moved to point to Emley Moor after the switch over,or leave it pointing to Beecroft?

Stephen: Beecroft Hill does not yet transmit any digital channels, so if you can get any Freeview at all your aerial is not pointing at Beecroft Hill.
However, if you could provide a postcode we can comment more.
