I get awful Planet Rock reception in my kitchen in Poole, Dorset (one bar on my PURE radio) yet all the BBC stations are fine (all bars up).

Can Poole / Bournemouth have a low powered filler transmitter?

Thanks KMJ. I can see the Parkstone mast from my garden!

I was wondering if Planet Rock will be / can be added to the St Catherine Hill transmitter as it is line of sight for most of Poole & Bournemouth where as Nine Barrow isn't.

Wasn't there a proposal to use the BBC HD channel for BBC2 HD?

Thanks Brian. I wonder who will take the empty slot? Hope its going to be something interesting and not a shopping channel!

I've noticed that Virgin Media haven't changed their channel number to 109 as they said they would. So BBC2 HD is using the old BBC HD channel number. I emailed them to ask when it would be on 109 next to BBC 1 HD and they said they would pass the suggestion on which makes me think they never planned to do it in the first place.

Correction VM never said they would change the channel number, I now find out. Seems a pity as it would be easier to have the BBC HD channels all together.

Useful. I've discovered I'm surrounded by 4G sites all within 0.98km!
