Brian, see my post https://ukfree.tv/extras/inreplyto/1126096 about Durris and Brougher Mountain.
I'm now finding this occurring on a number of transmitter pages (and not always showing posts on the last page) - a refresh does correct it, but I'd reckon many average posters won't have a clue and think there's no post. Can you look into this please.

YUK! The sudden appearance this evening of Adverts that appear in between lines of a post are an absolute PITA. Especially if it's a complex reply, it will make it extremely difficult for non-techies that one could be replying to, to read the detail and they may in fact miss important lines.
If you can please do something about that.
Ads that appear over the page that one can then cancel are fine EXCEPT when they are in Russian as just happened here!

Brian, I'm sorry to say that a number of recent OS updates have broken so many things, it's getting very difficult to ensure one hasn't missed a post!
My (weekly) email updates are now virtually useless as they list most of the threads that I've posted in during the last few years and it's virtually the same content each week but occasionally recent ones are missing.
Even when looking for (all) my posts to check something recently posted, that is no longer displaying correct nor up-to-date.
Then there are some of the bugs already mentioned on this page which are becoming increasingly frustrating, as well as those mentioned on the 2025 updates page (which I struggled to fins just now but eventually did)..
The issue I reported here https://ukfree.tv/extras/inreplyto/1126096 is now occurring on even more transmitter pages and even a page refresh does not show up posts.
Please, I hope you can find some time to address some of these bugs.

There seem to be a lot of old posts appearing at the top of the Your Comments page again. Some don't even have the page title listed (or link) leaving me to guess which page has been commented on.

Brian -
From "Your Comments"
https://ukfree.tv/transmitters/tv/Pontop_Pike/PGSTART640/irt720100 gives a Pontop Pike page with just P1 and P49 showing as the pages, and NO comments visible - until you refresh the page - other than regular responders here, people would not realise to do that.
Not the first time I've mentioned this issue, and it affects several other transmitter pages, can you please please try and fix it.

Why do broadcasters even from the same networkl link such as My 5 (Channel 5) transmit channels on HD only and I think in particular of 5 Select which is only available on high definition?

Nicholas Anderson: 5 Select is carried on the PSB3 multiplex which is broadcast using DVB-T2 modulation in order to have enough capacity to carry several HD channels. The remaining space not used for HD channels has been sold to other broadcasters, possibly at a lower price (this information will be commercially sensitive so I'm just guessing) than space on the COM multiplexes which are broadcast using DVB-T modulation, which any DTT/Freeview TV/box can receive.
In short, it's probably down to money and available capacity.
