Mike Davison, Thank you for your timely reply.
I am referring to this continual messing about at Emley Moor. Yet again, we are to expect these interruptions during the coming week as reported at the head of the page.
The SD transmissions appear to be excellent, ref. my 06.46 AM post 10/12/2013. Does this Engineering work warning just refer to HD perhaps?

Ron - Ah now I understand. It is frustrating seeing these warnings of spasmodic breaks but that's inevitable when so many services come from one site. I think a shoulder-shrug is the best reaction and hope it doesn't affect something you really want to see. Daytime TV can be as much affected as it needs to be so far as I'm concerned.

David Parker:
Hi, During the last month I have lost lots of Tv channels on my Sony 40in TV.
On re-programming the TV I have had no success.
Lots of channels arenow showing heavy interference with spasmodic picture and sound.
I have even had to move to channel 865 to get a film channel that works.
What is the point in having lots of channels if they are unavailable?
I live in Thorne, Doncaster.

james sullivan: As you have working channels up in the 800s then this means that your TV is picking up signals from more than one transmitter, which isn't surprising where you are.
You are probably picking up signals from Belmont and possibly Bilsdale.
You may be able to wipe what's stored and manually tune the five standard definition channels from Emley Moor and one HD if it's so.
Or have the aerial unplugged for the first 30% of the scan. You may, potentially, find that you still have some channels wrong because unfortunately some of those of Bilsdale and Belmont are interleaved within the range used by Emley.
Once done, check that they are all tuned correctly for Emley. Do this by bringing up the signal strength screen on the following services:
PSB1 - BBC One - C47
PSB2 - ITV - C44
PSB3 - BBC One HD - C41
COM4 - ITV3 - C51
COM5 - Pick - C52
COM6 - 4Music - C48
Belmont's six are 22, 28, 28(HD), 30, 53, 60
Bilsdale's are 26, 29, 23(HD), 43, 46, 40
The objective of having the aerial out for the first 30% is to miss out channels in the 20s. As you can see, some unwanted ones are higher up, so look out for them being incorrectly stored.

I am not as good as you are on fault finding but if james sullivan as a aerial pointing to Emley Moor (if this is his main transmitter) with good line of sight.
how come he is able to get Belmont,and Bilsdale.
which are diferant positions and not in line of sight

David Parker: There are areas of overlap where signals from more than one transmitter are quite strong. In this case Belmont and Emley are in roughly the opposite direction so it's quite a common issue, as I know myself because I'm near to James. The back of an aerial is quite sensitive.
The other thing is that Belmont's channels are lower down and so are picked up before Emley's in the scan. Bilsdale's bearing is roughly 90 degrees from Belmont and Emley, but whilst it is true that the side of the aerial is least sensitive, it isn't impossible to be receiving it, particularly if there is an amplifier involved.
The terrain in Lincolnshire is flat. The area to the east of Thorne and to the west of the River Trent is the Isle of Axholme. That land was reclaimed in the 17th Century by Cornelius Vermuyden and, as part of that project, the Don was re-routed to flow into the Ouse at Goole.
