Mark, I am in bridlington also, i was led to believe that after the change over we wouldnt get the Inversion Effect and this is the first time since change over it has happened for me, luckily we have a sky box ( not subscribbed) so could carry on watching tv via
That. looks like then i need to be on the look out for a good freesat box .

@ mark. my bedroom tv was still not getting the main channels last night, so i did a retune and got them all back, this morning i decided to retune main tv in the lounge and as it was scanning i noticed it was also picking up the cambridge/beds signal, as that is quite a way from me being in bridlington it surprised me, i have a roof top wideband aerial about 94 element i think ! i can't remember exactly and there is a booster/splitter in the loft. am i picking up the cam/beds because of the booster?

Mark, The splitter/booster was already in when i moved here two years ago. i think everyone needed one as tv reception here was crap, digital is a improvement although there was a lot of inversion problems in summer, there is a box also on the aerial mast which the rf lead from the aerial goes into, not sure if that is part of the booster system or just a connection box. Regarding the bilsdale transmitter that is actually nearer to me, but it wouldnt give us the local news, i think in my case it might just be easier to get a freesat box as we have a dish up,we do use sky as a back up but you cant get all the free channels on sky,
