hi,
I have checked your location and all aerials in your road are pointing to hannington.
The reception you are receiving from there must be marginal for you to be picking up other transmitters from time to time.
Without seeing your install and knowing the spec of it and age, I would suggest for an aerial to work in your location you need a high gain aerial possibly fitted with a notch filter which will filter our transmission being received from unwanted locations such as Rowridge,
regards
Jamie.

Hi, would be really useful if there was a way to calculate the compass bearing of the transmitter from my house (to check the antenna is pointing the right direction) using the web site. I have managed to figure it out using another site to do the calculation but just thought I'd suggest it :)
Very useful site btw, managed to figure out why I was getting bad reception on a brand new sony tv on some channels, as it had picked up a low power signal from the wrong transmitter and ignored the much stronger signal from the right one!

Richard: The bearing is 232 degrees.
However, in order to use a compass you need to take into account the fact that Magnetic North and True North are different. The former varies over time and by location.

Richard: To add to that said by Dave Linsay, you can find out the bearing of any transmitter that is considered to be within range by clicking on "Digital UK tradeview " seen on the six choice box on the right hand side of your posting.

Hello,
I am in Reading
Hannington Transmitter reports all OK.
However the new BBC HD channels are low power or not transmitting when they should be on air.
All the other HD channels and SD show 100% signal 100% quality - so it not an inversion problem.
What is going on ?
Surely this IS a transmitting problem at Hannington ??
When will they increase the power on these new HD channels.

Martin : This is incorrect. The new HD multiplex which carries the additional BBC HD services is not due to go on air from Hannington until some time next year. The power of the signal, according to Digital UK, will be 29.5kW. The power of the PSBs is 50kW and the COMs are at 25kW.
