I have 2 questions:-
1. Why doesn't the map on this web page not show the transmitter coverage. I was hoping to find 2 coverage maps, 1 for Analogue and one for Digital, but there's neither.
2. Will this transmitter be my best for terrestial digital TV after changeover ? I live at 14, Station Avenue, Inverkip, PA16 0BB
Cheers, John C
