I thought I would just place this comment here as there is a faulty link on the site and I cannot find anywhere to report it to the Webmaster/Administrator. I arrived in Guernsey at the Gorey transmitter map by clicking on the Gorey transmitter for Saorview in Ireland. Faulty link!

I'm afraid it isn't the only error on the site, whether the site owner will get round to fixing it, along with all the 700MHz updates remains to be seen.
