Belmont (Lincolnshire, England) DAB transmitter
The coloured area on the map represents the locations where DAB reception should be possible in a car, or using a DAB receiver where the aerial is above ground-floor level. Inside the area with the thick coloured line, indoor domestic reception even at ground level should be highly reliable. However, the coverage area shown is the official radiation pattern, the actual terrain and receiver aerial position will affect reception reliability.
Are there any planned engineering works or unexpected transmitter faults on the Belmont (Lincolnshire, England) mast?

I live in Hull and have just bought a Pure Classic DAB radio. I seem only to be able to receive D1 National stations, looking at the map above I seem to be just on the edge of the BBC channels which were the main ones I wanted. Have you any ideas of how I can improve my signal or any radios's that do work in this area? Any help much appreciated.Debbie: Take your radio to upstairs, preferably to a window with a good view in the direction of Belmont. Scan and see what stations you get.
From Belmont, the signal for D1 is the same as BBC, (except for different frequency). Therefore, I don't think that you're that far off getting it.
The thing is that DAB radios usually require a scan to pick up stations. Obviously they only pick up stations that can be found at the exact location that they are in, which is why I suggest that you take the radio to somewhere where the likelihood is greater. If you successfully get BBC national stations, then they will be added to your radio's memory.
Then bring the radio back to the room you had it in. Having scanned successfully, you can then move the radio around whilst tuned to one of the BBC national stations. You should be able to get an idea of whereabouts in the room that the signal is the best.
It might be beneficial not to have your radio near to your computer and other equipment such as router or cordless telephone base unit. D

I have recently bought a Cambridge Audio DAB tuner for my Hi-fi system. It is connected to an outside aerial. I receive a full-strength signal and the sound is superb. I listen to Radio 3 and Classic FM and every so often there is a very noticeable blip in the signal which is annoying and spoils the overall sound. Sometimes the signal will drop out for 3 or 4 seconds. Has anybody else experienced this?
