David: The bouncing icon is a pin showing the location of the transmitter on the map. There are no faults currently reported for Belmont, although there is a warning of possible effect on transmission from a couple of weeks ago, so there may still be work ongoing which could require the transmitter's signal strength to be reduced or switched off for periods of time to allow the work to take place safely.

We have been unable to watch BBC1, BBC2 or BBC4 for several weeks now on Freeview via the Belmont transmitter, we have to resort to Freesat.
We were hoping the failure today might see an improvement upon repair but it's still unwatchable.
Is this related to the issue from the 6th December please?
