Ian Young: All we can say is that the commercial multiplexes have no plans to extend services to any more transmitters. They were asked, in the planning stages, and they turned it down, saying it was too expensive.
Digital UK's trade predictor reckons that you could get a signal from Black Hill with the right aerial, but the reliability is expected to be poor. You might manage reliable service with a larger-than-usual aerial. However, the cost of installation might mean it's better to investigate satellite.
Dave is a subscription channel on satellite, so you'd have to pay Sky at least £19.50 per month. Virgin Media cable is not available in your area.
