Horndean (Hampshire, England) Freeview Light transmitterWednesday 8 November 2017 6:22PM
Waterlooville
Mike B, postcode is PO8 0HN. I've since found out that the problem I was having on the day that I put the ariel on a taller pole was due to transmission problems (sod's law) even though the Freeview website said there wasn't. What I don't quite understand is if I point the ariel at the Horndean transmitter I get no signal at all, the other problem is that the Catherington Lith is in the way of the Rowbridge transmitter, hence why i've put up a longer pole, reception is not to bad at the moment apart from Quest ch 37, I have watch that through through the Freeview recorder (extra booster even though there's a booster in the loft.
Regards.

Since having the chimney stack removed on my bungalow (good TV signal), i've had the ariel mounted in the loft (iffy reception) , it is currently mounted on a 12 foot pole on the side of the bungalow, which is ok but signal is prone to suddenly dissapear for no apparent reason. As the Horndean transmitter is less than a mile from me, it's surprising that this happens.
