Wait and see what happens next month after switchover and higher powere starts.
Gainsborough is in Lincolshire so I do not understand why your aerial is not pionting at Belmont which is allready high power from today I beleive. I'm in Leeds region and Belmont is out powering my Emley Moor here.

Wednesday 17 August 2011 1:32PM
Thanks for your comments guys, I thought as much - Belmont does seem to be the main transmitter round here. On Sky my dad gets Look North for this area but on Freeview I get totally irrelevant stuff from Peter Levy for Lincolnshire.

It's annoying but not annoying enough to pay for a new aerial as I've got a HUGE digital aerial on the side of my flat anyway as we're surrounded by trees!

Just another question too with regards to updates from this site - I set them for "email updates" and have had nothing (apologies for me only just coming back to check!).....anyone else have these problems?

Thanks for all your help.

Briantist: Genius post and thank you once again. Your link led me to search for other BBC channels, high up and yes, I found them transmitting with EPG data on Channel 27 which I believe is the Sheffield relay and which would explain why they took over on the Sheffield first stage switch over day. Signal strength however is poor at 30% and occasionally blocky so I'm at a loss to understand how they dominate the Emley Moor signal at 82% strength.
However, I'll now attempt to force my freeview box to adopt the Emley Moor transmission on ch52. Instructions in the booklet are non-existent so I guess I'll need a few attempts. Maybe I will wait for the first stage switchover of Emley Moor just to avoid going through the cycle again.

Thank you once again.

Thanks Briantist - notifications all working fine now.

I'm resigned to the fact that I'm going to get Look North (Yorks & Lincs) rather than the one that's relevant for my area as I've checked with the person who put the aerial up and he says the strongest signal for me (bearing in mind I live in a bit of a dip/bottom of a hill) is Belmont

I live in a council flat at S13 7jy and the council replaced ariels and sockets for new ones for switch over. after the switch over a couple of channels (dave, E4+1,5*, and more that i dint really notice) started staggering and freezing, so i read i might have to do a full retune. I did it and now the channels that staggered have gone all together! NO DAVE!! how can i fix this?? is it the councils responsability or do i have to fork out for ariels??

Hello Brian, Firstly I hope that your injury is healing nicely.
What does the transmitter power output relate to after 27th Sept? Is it 174Kw per multiplex (except ArqB possible reduction) or total across all?

I've just bought a panasonic tv with built in HD receiver. The digital reception is perfect but Hd sound keeps suddenly increasing and background interference between words is so bad that it is impossible to listen to the program. By switching to an ordinary digi channel then immediately switching back to HD returns the sound back to normal. This fault happens to no apparent pattern but anything from 2 to 45 minute intervals, last night it happened 4 times during a 1 hour program. the HD channels I receive are 50 - 54. My tv retailer says it isn't a problem with the tv, but is most likely a problem with interference on transmission. Does anyone else have the same problem and will it disappear when the 7th and 21st Sept changes happen ?. Any help wold be appreciated. My postcode is HU15 1ES.

Hi again - I'll give my full postcode (keep forgetting to add it) S21 4LE.

So, a new problem has arisen - I've accepted the fact that I'm stuck with Look North (Yorks and Lincs) and I can live with that and the reception for my set is perfect, can't complain about it.

The problem I've got now is on my grandma's two sets. Since I retuned all the channels at the beginning of August (as we lost ITV channels)......then retuned them again (as we lost ITV again!).....now they're all tuned in but the signal for some of the other channels (Yesterday, Film 4, ITV 4 and a few others) is so poor a picture can't really be viewed as it blocks out and often the signal just goes.

The outside aerial is relatively new (a new one was fitted to pick digital up about a year ago) - she has her room TV and her kitchen TV off the same aerial with a booster box fitted - all connected up correctly.

Would old aerial leads have an effect on the quality of signal? The brown aerial leads inside her home have been there for years and years.....I suppose all cables deteriorate - is it worthwhile me replacing these.....or won't it make much difference?

Sorry to keep asking new questions - I bet you're getting fed up! :)

Thanks again.

Mick C: Right, OK.

Today, the Belmont and Waltham transmitters are the only one that will provide you with 4/6 multiplexes, including the ones with BBC and ITV regional news.

Come 21st September 2011, you will be able to get Emley Moor at full power, for 6/6 services. If you want "Look North" from Leeds, and the same on ITV, then wait four weeks, move your aerial and you will have it.

If you don't Belmont will provide the ArqA and ArqB multiplexes from 23rd November 2011.

I wouldn't use Waltham, the service will go down to to 2 multiplexes over the next few years.

Our aerial system currently has a combined masthead amplifier & splitter, sending the signal to four separate leads.

I know that after switchover the digital transmission power will be raised. Do you think the masthead amplifier will still be beneficial after this? Might I get too much signal from it?
jb38
Wednesday 24 August 2011 7:42AM
Thomas: Its most likely that it would be superfluous to your requirements when Emley Moor goes over to high power operation, however unless its easy to access I wouldn't really let it bother you, as should it be found that signal overload problems were happening on any of your TV's / boxes causing either permanent or intermittent blocking of the signal, then simple attenuators could be fitted in line with each of their aerial sockets.
Mike Dimmick
Wednesday 24 August 2011 10:15AM
jb38: unless the signal level at the aerial terminals is too much for the masthead amplifier, in which case the signal will already be degraded before it gets to the receivers. In this case you would need to put attenuation in front of the masthead amp, change the aerial for one with less gain, change the amplifier for one which can handle more signal, or replace with a passive splitter.
jb38
Wednesday 24 August 2011 11:13AM
Mike Dimmick: Well maybe in theory there is a remote possibility that this could happen, theory and practice sometimes being quite remote from each other when dealing with RF where elements of trial and error are never far away, especially in anything domestic!

However in practical terms, at 18 miles away from the transmitter this is unlikely to happen in the same way is it possibly could in a TV's or boxes tuner where oscillator circuitry is involved, and so as far as I am concerned could be discounted.

Wednesday 24 August 2011 2:14PM Sheffield
This digital switchover is absolutely rubbish. I used to get a strong analogue signal from the Sheffield mast, to my aerial in the loft, giving 4 solid terrestrial stations and fuzzy channel 5.
I got a professional in to put up a better aerial on the roof and channel 5 got worse, though I got SOME digital channels with reasonable clarity unless the weather was rainy, cloudy, sunny, windy or snowy.
Now, BOTH BBC channels have broken-up and are unwatchable. The others are no better than they were.
My aerial is vertically polarised so it shouldn't pick up Emley Moor. I would have line-of-sight to Sheffield mast if my house was 150 yards closer.
Pointless rubbish.
Can I get a discount on my licence fee if I can't receive what I'm paying for?
Mike Dimmick
Wednesday 24 August 2011 3:18PM
Neil Barnett: If you got worse Channel 5 from a roof aerial than from a loft aerial, why didn't you complain at the time? It might indicate that the aerial was the wrong group - you need a wideband aerial to get all the multiplexes.

Did you get the BBC channels reliably over the last two weeks? If so, the reason is probably now that you have too much signal. If you have a booster or other amplifier, remove it or turn it down. If that doesn't help, try adding an attenuator.

Signal levels from Belmont and Chesterfield also look pretty high at your location. While the aerial is designed to reject signals off-beam and from the other polarization, that rejection may not actually be enough to throw a strong signal 'down the cliff' - the received signal level could still be enough for the box to detect it.

Check whether there's another copy of the BBC channels somewhere else in the channel list, typically around 800. If so, your box may be one that tunes in the first version found rather than the best quality - Belmont is on C22, Chesterfield on C26, Sheffield on C27. See Digital Region Overlap for suggestions; a manual retune is the most likely fix. See the Sheffield transmitter page for the channels to use - note that ArqB is on C63 until 27 September.

Neil Barnett: "Can I get a discount on my licence fee if I can't receive what I'm paying for?"

Basically no. If you sells all your TVs and other TV reception equipment, you can apply for a refund. Otherwise you have to pay and obtaining a decent reception is your responsibility.

What date will we see an increase in the power at switchover? I live in Darfield S Yorks
Mike Dimmick
Wednesday 24 August 2011 7:13PM
D Gough: 7 September, for BBC channels (except HD). 21 September, for all other channels.

Mux A is scheduled to move from C43- to C52+ on 7 September, to allow Sutton Coldfield to launch high-power BBC A on C43. I believe it will do so at 10kW, so you might get some improvement on the channels on that multiplex, for the two weeks between stage 1 and 2.

I've already posted this, but on the wrong transmitter page. Apologies for the repeat..
I'm at LS17 9LP (Yorkshire). We've had digital for 3 or 4 years, and have recently got 2 issues. They have happened since I followed the on- screen instructions to re tune after 20th August.
Firstly - the digital signal fluctuates during the afternoon. From midday until around 8pm, we get breakup or even total loss on all channels. Reception is perfectly good the rest of the time.
Secondly, since we retuned, our "local" news on BBC (channel 1) seems to think we live in Lincolnshire. To get the Yorkshire news, we have to tune to channel 825
We have a wideband amplified aerial mounted on the wall of the house, horizontally aligned pointing at 194 degrees (to Emley Moor) direct into a sky box. The signal goes from there into a 4 way splitter for distribution to sets around the house. This configuration allows sky to also be distributed on analogue.
Any ideas why we get this fluctuation, and why the locality has changed?
Mike Dimmick
Wednesday 24 August 2011 10:00PM
Iain Nicol: Your box must be one of the many that stores the first channels it finds, rather than waiting to see if it finds better signals elsewhere.

There is a very large overlap between the Belmont and Emley Moor transmitters, and you're on the edges of it. No changes have yet been made to Emley Moor. The prompt you got must have been coming from Belmont - perhaps one of the multiplexes was from there originally.

See Digital Region Overlap for a list of possible solutions, but the only real solution is either to tune manually or replace the box with one that tunes the best-quality services and/or allows you to select the region to store.

Neil Barnett. License Fee. I'm afraid you will also find that if you have had your license for 28 days, then you are not eligible for a refund for the rest of the year. This is what I was told by TV Licensing when I applied for a refund for the 6 months I had no TV equipment installed.
Typical of all taxes, if you owe them £1 they want it yesterday, if they owe you £1 it will take at least 6 weeks (if you get it at all)

Good answer, many thanks. It appears to me the belmont-based channels that suffer from fluctuating signal strength during the day. Is this due to distance from the transmitter / daytime atmospheric conditions?

Just got a new Sanyo TV with built in Freeview but can't understand why I'm missing channels. Signal strength is reported as very good, yet I'm only getting Mux 1,2 and B.
I have a roof mounted aerial and postcode is S5 9LS
Mike Dimmick
Thursday 25 August 2011 10:37PM
Iain Nicol: Probably both of those, and the polar response of the aerial as well. See www.aerialsandtv.com link icon Aerial Polar Reponse Diagrams for an explanation of polar response and some examples.
Mike Dimmick
Thursday 25 August 2011 10:47PM
Simon: Is the aerial set for vertical polarization - elements going up-and-down - or horizontal? If vertical, you should be tuned into the Sheffield transmitter. It could be a case of too much signal - if you have a booster, remove it or turn it down.

If the aerial is set for horizontal polarization - elements going side-to-side - you're too far away for reliable digital reception from Emley Moor at the moment. Emley Moor switchover starts in two weeks, on the 7th of September, when BBC Two analogue switches off, ITV1 analogue moves to replace it, and high-power BBC digital services take over ITV1's frequency. (Low-power Mux 1 is switched off). It completes on 21 September, when all remaining analogue services shut down, and all low-power digital multiplexes are replaced by their high-power counterparts, on different frequencies. You will need to retune on both dates.

There's a possibility that you could be picking up Sheffield's signals powerfully enough for the TV to detect them even if you have the aerial set horizontally. Newer TVs should handle this overlap better, though.

We live about 1 mile from the Emley Moor transmitter (and have a line of sight view of it from our window!) - we live in a new house and have a brand new ariel with an integrated splitter/amplifier.
Signal strength/quality on the BBC channels is perfect, but signal quality on the ITV channels and Channel 4 etc generally very poor (strength is ok) with a tendency for the picture to break up and become blocky. Its the same on all TVs running off the splitter. Sometimes it is watchable but more often than not it isn't.
Any thoughts? Pretty frustrating being so close to the transmitter with a brand new setup, getting a perfect signal on some channels and an unusable one on others!

Read many years ago when Emley Moor first brought into service that Emley village could not recieve the transmision as the signal went over their heads.
Something was done back then to help.

David: Do you mean the original mast, the one that fell down in cold weather in 1969?
Thomas
Sunday 28 August 2011 11:26AM Leeds
Mark, if you live only 1 mile from the transmitter and can actually SEE it, you should not need an amplifier at all. A non-powered splitter should do the job. You may be getting too MUCH signal, which can cause problems similar to too little signal.

If you can't change the amplifier/splitter, you may need to install an attenuator to reduce the signal level.
Mark Harrison
Sunday 28 August 2011 12:43PM
Thomas - the TV is definitely saying that signal quality is very poor on ITv/C4 - I have tried an attenuator as I thought this might be the problem - it just made it worse!!
BBC has 80% strength and 100% quality and the picture is perfect. ITV/C4 strength is about 70% but quality is barely 20%. I would have thought that if there was a problem with the equipment I wouldn't get such a good signal from the BBC.
Looking at the various MUX above, it does say that 2 and A are low and very low but it seems outrageous that I can't get a good enough signal so close to the mast!!!
David

Do you think your getting CH 22 from Belmont for the BBC stations?
(As we are just a little north of you.).
Thomas
Sunday 28 August 2011 1:08PM Leeds
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but why are different frequencies more sensitive to the wind blowing the aerial around? Analogue BBC1 and Channel 4 hold up well even when there's wind. ITV1 has variable ghosting in the wind, and BBC2 is the worst - i get a complete loss of picture even with light wind!

After switchover, when the muxes move to the old analogue frequencies, maybe they will also suffer from dropouts? SDN, which gets BBC2's old frequency, might be the worst affected for me...
Mike Davison
Monday 29 August 2011 3:22PM
Mark Harrison - just a thought but the 64QAM channels may be more susceptible to multipath reception which is possible at your location if there are any good size buildings further away from the mast but sending a comparable signal to your direct signal by reflection as they could be better illuminated. In that case it may be advantageous to point your antenna at the reflection so long as the source is going to be permanent. Checking your analogue reception(while you can) may show up ghosting so this could be the issue.
Thomas
Monday 29 August 2011 5:43PM Leeds
For most of the afternoon, BBC1 analogue kept flickering (like a loose connector) and occasionally flipping to a different feed that was 4:3 instead of 16:9, and slightly delayed relative to the 'normal' feed. It happened several times during Total Wipeout.
The flickers could have been caused by my aerial or connectors, but that would NOT cause it to flip to a delayed feed! It's almost as if the Emergency Rebroadcaster kept activating for some reason… perhaps they're preparing to switch the transmitter to digital?
