It could be of interest to Glossop residents to know that many residents south of the town centre can receive Freeview direct from Winter Hill and many North of the town centre can
receive good signals from the Moel y parc
transmitter in North wales. The full range of programmes is available from these transmitters. An aerial upgrade may be required though. Regarding DAB, why bother?
FM gives much better quality and far better coverage.

paul: Although you may not have done, but if by any chance you had made the common mistake of having carried out a rescan when you first discovered that the signal was missing then this will have wiped out everything already stored in the tuners memory, this then making it necessary to carry out another rescan to recover them.

Coral Crossley: If you haven't retuned it then it would be expected to come back on again.
If you have retuned it and you are using a portable aerial then take it to the fixed (external) aerial in order to tune it in and then return it to its normal location.
Incidently, you may be able to receive all Freeview channels from Winter Hill. On Streetview I can see quite a few large Winter Hill aerials.
