Why does the Rosehearty transmitter offer such a limited range of programmes through Freeview. Everywhere else that I stay gets many more programmes than we can receive. We pay the same money for the equipment why aren't we given the same level of service?

martin bilbie: This transmitter is a "public service" transmitter, where the commercial operators have declined to operate from.
If you want more channels, your best option is Freesat - see Compare Freeview Light and Freesat TV | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

mr ian duthie: I presume that your aerial is on the Rosehearty relay (275 degrees, vertically polarised). This doesn't carry the commercial channels.
The Digital UK predictor doesn't look good for reception from Durris for the commercial multiplexes. If you are to ever get such channels, then I think we can safely say that it will have to be a rooftop aerial.
Perhaps the pros might be able to suggest what the possibility of success might be.
