Paul: If you still have analogue you won't be getting Freeview HD today.

Ash: Only Freeview HD (DVB-T2) receivers can see the HD channels, they are totally invisible to standard Freeview equipment.

Thanks Brian, looks like I may be on Sutton ColdField as that only 20 degress away from Kimberley from where I am.
I better get my ladders out at the weekend and move it round a few degrees that may explain some of the picture quality issues I have had.
Thanks again
Ash

Paul: Most likely you are using the Waltham transmitter. Waltham switches over in August.
You are predicted to get best results from Sutton Coldfield but Waltham should still be acceptable. The results from Nottingham are expected to be poor.
If you're desperate for HD you could try Sutton Coldfield/Lichfield. The aerial would need to point south-west, rather than east. Your existing wideband aerial should be sufficient. You will get West Midlands news rather than East Midlands.
