Wait and see what happens next month after switchover and higher powere starts.
Gainsborough is in Lincolshire so I do not understand why your aerial is not pionting at Belmont which is allready high power from today I beleive. I'm in Leeds region and Belmont is out powering my Emley Moor here.

Thanks for your comments guys, I thought as much - Belmont does seem to be the main transmitter round here. On Sky my dad gets Look North for this area but on Freeview I get totally irrelevant stuff from Peter Levy for Lincolnshire.
It's annoying but not annoying enough to pay for a new aerial as I've got a HUGE digital aerial on the side of my flat anyway as we're surrounded by trees!
Just another question too with regards to updates from this site - I set them for "email updates" and have had nothing (apologies for me only just coming back to check!).....anyone else have these problems?
Thanks for all your help.

Briantist: Genius post and thank you once again. Your link led me to search for other BBC channels, high up and yes, I found them transmitting with EPG data on Channel 27 which I believe is the Sheffield relay and which would explain why they took over on the Sheffield first stage switch over day. Signal strength however is poor at 30% and occasionally blocky so I'm at a loss to understand how they dominate the Emley Moor signal at 82% strength.
However, I'll now attempt to force my freeview box to adopt the Emley Moor transmission on ch52. Instructions in the booklet are non-existent so I guess I'll need a few attempts. Maybe I will wait for the first stage switchover of Emley Moor just to avoid going through the cycle again.
Thank you once again.

E.P.Cox: You should have excellent reception now, you probably need to check your aerial and cables are OK. It is unlikely that switchover will make any difference.

Adrian Rodgers: Thanks. I'm glad you have located the problem and found a work-around. Please do let me know how you get on.

Thanks Briantist - notifications all working fine now.
I'm resigned to the fact that I'm going to get Look North (Yorks & Lincs) rather than the one that's relevant for my area as I've checked with the person who put the aerial up and he says the strongest signal for me (bearing in mind I live in a bit of a dip/bottom of a hill) is Belmont

I live in a council flat at S13 7jy and the council replaced ariels and sockets for new ones for switch over. after the switch over a couple of channels (dave, E4+1,5*, and more that i dint really notice) started staggering and freezing, so i read i might have to do a full retune. I did it and now the channels that staggered have gone all together! NO DAVE!! how can i fix this?? is it the councils responsability or do i have to fork out for ariels??
