We have lost three channels from Shotleyfield Transmitter, yet you are reporting 'No Current Problems'.
Is this comment of yours up to date or not?

James: Which channels are you referring to?
The Shotleyfield transmitter does not yet broadcast digital (Freeview) services and will only begin to do so at switchover in September.
If you are receiving Freeview, then you are probably getting it directly from Pontop Pike.
