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?

mike Roberts.Yes,Sutton Coldfield's analogue signals are now gone forever as they too along with Emley Moor are both switching to full digital transmissions.Over at Wigan you're ok because you're receiving Winter Hill transmissions,but not Emley Moor at present which i have manually scanned at least every 15 minutes (last scan 0215) and it is still off the air fully until at least 6am,as Briantist mentioned earlier.At present while im texting in,i am currently watching my TV from the Belmont transmitter on the Freeview platform,as well as oddly enough attempting to receive Mux's from the Winter Hill transmitter where i live in Halifax,which i can pick up (some of them) very well but with a set-top aerial,an amplifier having to be used this time (for Winter Hill only) and having to hold the aerial in my hand to pick them up (arm aching in the process),and worse still once the Holmfield local relay nearby where i reside is switched on later today,their frequencies on ch55 D3+4,ch59 BBCA,ch62 BBCB,may possibly clash with Winter Hill Mux's ArqB on ch55,D3+4 on ch59,BBCA on ch62,a potential single frequency interference issue here,thus only the potential to receive 2 of Winter Hill's Mux's SDN on ch58 and ArqA on ch61 (no BBCB on ch54 as my freeview box is non-HD),i feel i may as well give up on Winter Hill altogether.PS-Emley Moor's BBCA Mux on ch47 while i was composing this text is now back on once again !

Well got about 91 channels back here now for the last hour (watched 'nothing but the truth' on picktv - it's pretty bad :DD )Thought I'd give update / encouragement to anyone who's still not back on track yet :).

Retuned, all channels are there although I'm getting a few duplicate channels from Belmont. I'm also getting a duplicate Challenge TV on channel 795, supposedly on Emley Moor's SDN Mux, but when I go to it it says 'no service'. The normal Channel 46 Challenge works, but on C52 ArqA.

Panasonic 37" and 32" appear to be working ok.
Philips box is messed up, no factory reset on menu.
Panasonic PVR missing programs, not getting anything above ch 47 by the look of it, can't see factory reset on menu.
When I have woke fully up will have to dig these 2 manuals out.

Yes found manuals done the resets to Default/Shipping and all is ok now after resetting up.
By the way I did last night remove the aerial signal booster to hopefully not have the Belmont BBC1 problem after this morning, I do have Leeds now on 1 and Lincolnshire at 800. Will check further to see if the number 1 is from EM or Idle as I did notice on the scan other low end channel numbers reporting strengths on the scans.
