The MUX power increase on 4th April came through perfectly, eventually by the afternoon.
Despite what the Hannington Freeview list shows the MUX that changed on 4th April was ARQA on channel 44 NOT SDN on channel 41!
It had to be ch44 as that was the channel that was the first of the three to be freed-up from the Guildford transmitter (MUX2 ...going to ch49; this will then change to D3+4 and go to ch46 on 18th April)
Channels 41 and 47 are still awaiting their power increase on 18th April from Hannington.
This can all be seen on the GUILDFORD Freeview page.
Just to be clear:
Ch41 is used for MUXA (SDN)and will go to Ch48;
Ch47 is used for MUXC (ARQA) and will go to ch52; both on 18th April.

Lance:
Yes, you correct about C44 on Hannington.
However, the top of this page currently shows C44 at 10KW, described as 'Very low' and C41 at 25KW, described as 'Above average', which is obviously not right.

Ch41 and Ch47 from Hsnnington are being transmitted at a much lower power than Ch39, 42, 44 and 45 until the 18th April.

For Ch41, 44 and 47, I think the max. power after the 18th April will be 25Kw. Ch44 is already at 25Kw.
Ch 39, 42 and 45 will be 50Kw.

Ch42 on Hannington is already at max. power.
Only ch41 and 47 will increase in power on the 18th April. I've just checked on my TV now, and ch42 is 100% for both signal strength and quality.

trevor: You are predicted as being able to have far in away better reception from Crystal Palace (especially from the 18th) over that of Hannington, as Hannington's main PSB transmitters although indicating good leave a little to be desired, and with the commercial muxes not indicated at as being able to provide signals above the status of poor at any time, this right into the future.
Adrian on the other hand and who has just replied to you, IS indicated as being in a position where Hannington is the best, and with Crystal Palace taking second place.
Obviously local conditions (obstructions etc) might well be applying in these areas and predictors don't necessarily take this type of situation into account, but that's the predictions seen for the code provided.
Just purely for a test, although Crystal Palace is about 40 degrees out from the rear of your aerial you should give CP's high powered (200kw) BBC1 a manual tune test to see the level indicated, it being on Ch23.
By the way on most equipment, if you go into the manual tuning screen as soon as you enter the channel number you intend to scan its level will immediately be indicated, this without actually having to scan it.
