Hi
Is this the final set of channels for West Runton or will other common digital channels such as Dave, Yesterday, etc be added at a later date?

Paul: It is very unlikely that the COM muxes will ever be added, the owners of the muxes were asked if they wished to extend the service to more sites but declined on the grounds that the cost of provision would more than double whilst adding only a small percentage of extra viewers. In many cases the missing channels can be received via satellite or cable, or by installing an aerial for reception from one of the main stations.

Paul: hi am bob i live in cromer too, whereabouts rougly are ya, im near the sea front and receive freeview via belmont transmitter across the wash to lincolnshire using a wideband aerial and a booster, freeview not too bad. first stage of switchover on tuesday this week the bbc mux on fr22 is showing very good results, so hopefully when all complete should be full service when powered up. also i understand talconeston will be powered up in november also so think chances of full services are pretty good. you could always try these options as runton will only be carrying freeview lite service. let me know roughly where ya are and will advise on ya best option.

I am waiting hopefully for freeview from the west runton transmitter but checking on the map it appears the signal stops about 500 mts up the road from my house. (Displayed as yellow on the mapping). Is there a chance it will connect or is the cut off line set in stone for the signal.
number 13 at NR268AS
