The symbol shows the location of the Emley Moor (Kirklees, England) transmitter which serves 1,550,000 homes. The bright green areas shown where the signal from this transmitter is strong, dark green areas are poorer signals. Those parts shown in yellow may have interference on the same frequency from other masts.

Are there any planned engineering works or unexpected transmitter faults on the Emley Moor (Kirklees, England) mast?

The alphabetical listing page Every TV and radio mast has a lot of broken links, affecting links to TV and DAB transmitter maps with multi-word names. e.g. Emily Moor TV link is listed as Full service Freeview transmitters whereas the working URL is Full service Freeview transmitters So instead of going to the correct transmitter map page, it ends up at the Full service Freeview transmitters landing page (or Map of all DAB transmitters for DAB).
Not just Emily Moor, but all of the multi-word name transmitters, including Crystal Palace and Pontop Pike (just to pick a few main transmitters.

been switched to the (correct) west yorkshire region. Is this a national roll out and what is now going

I have a sony bravia freeview television connected to an ariel. Since Monday 14th December some channels have been affected by intermittent picture loss. on Thursday 17th December I lost all channels completely and tried to re-tune with no prolonged success. I did manage to get my normal service for around 5 minutes at approximately 10pm, but then lost all services again. Please advise whether it is a transmission problem before I call out someone to look at my arial. Thank you

I am currently investigating Freeview. From what I have seen so far, my postcode of LN1 1LB received the best reception from Emley Moor.
I am also looking at purchasing a set top box and am hoping to get one with 'Freeview Play'.
However, the specs on the boxes I am looking at are saying that Freeview Play may not yet be available from local transmitters, so I am writing to ask whether it is available from Emley Moor at this time, and, if not, when it will be.
Many thanks for your help.

Imogen Arnold: Reception in your area is possible from both Emley Moor (@ 52mls) and Waltham (@ 31mls), aerials in your locality seen to be facing in the direction of both stations, the one chosen as providing the best signal being determined by the installer at the time of installation.

However, before dwelling on the type of box referred to, i.e: Freeview Play, you should have a read at the info provided in the undermentioned link.

Don't buy a Freeview Play box until you've read these five facts | Alphr

Emley Moor HD 101 BBC1 On some programs I get the occasional breakups, my TV Signal report shows no bit errors, max signal strength, max quality.
SD is ok and the TV built in Freesat on BBC1 HD is ok.
I'm thinking my aerial is ok from above can there be a fault at EM transmitter?
