Freeview reception at PL4 7AP


For reliable and stable Freeview reception, you need an unobstructed path between the TV aerial on your roof and the digital TV transmitter. The map below shows the transmitters predicted to provide a signal at this location.

You can click on any transmitter symbol to show the coverage area as a green overlay on the map. Double click on a transmitter symbol to go to the transmitter information page.

You can also view the ten closest potential '4G-at-800' mobile phone masts within 1.5km of the selected location - these masts may be used for 4G-at-800 mobile broadband services from 2013-2015.

ji: If it is a single aerial that feeds the three TVs then how does the feed (from the aerial) split?

If it's a powered amplifier (booster) then perhaps it has failed. The fact that its light is on doesn't necessarily mean that it is functioning correctly.

Yes, you can use a Freeview box on a non-Freeview TV. If the TV has a scart socket then connect it using scart. If it's older and doesn't have a scaty socket then you may need something else to connect it.

Interesting feature, the line of sight map - although I'm unaware of any raised object 5km away as indicated - it's all water. Perhaps the postcode area is sufficiently broad to include some locations that do experience some land at that distance, but for me it's all water beyond about 1/2 km. Straight line, yes, but the signal still vanishes when a lorry or a buss passes by :-(

A pigeon appears to have landed on my aerial which is causing the picture on my TV constant disruption. Anyone know the policy on the shooting of poultry?
