Limavady Main Transmitter -freeview
I brought brand new built in TV Freeview Hitachi and cannot get Liable TV (digital) Very weak signal indeed cannot get picture, Can you look into this for me and check and test this transmitter and if RTE channels will be on Freeview system in NI from the Limavady transmitter throw freeview -How many channels you receive and your signal strength will also depend on the transmitter.
Transmitter at limavady needs to boosted ASAP, Donegal viewers have to have a say on this issue under the realms of the Good Friday agreement.

Seen Web link on Highland Radio News Motion you put forward today in Dail-
Highland Radio – Latest Donegal News and Sport » Inishowen Saorview signal problems aired in the Dil
Same issue applies here in Speenogue At moment with Digital Signal Coming from Limavady Transmitter cannot get Signal at all.
I have been in contact with all Media Organisations UTV.BBC,RTE about this same issue as this is the broadcasters area and have a vested interested that we get a good picture after digital switchover from both sides of the border under the Good Friday Agreement.
Would you be able to find out who runs and operates TV mast at Limvady Co. Derry and weathers assurances can be got that residents who live in Border Areas I.E. Burt Co.Donegal who have always got a picture from this tranmitter in Limavady will still remain get picture from Limvady after Digital switchover.
We cannot get Sheffits Mountain Transmitter or Holywell Hill as Grianan Fort blocks us getting a TV signal and cannot get Moville Saorview Signal As Highland Radio Mast at Scalp mountain In Burnfoot in Donegal blocks us getting a TV Signal.We currenly get (Saorview)from Fanad in Donegal.
A solution has to be found here and not for it to be sweep under the carpet this has to be looked at now not next year by whoever is tasked to do it......Gerry Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Think 10am Jim there is going to be a live broadcast on RTE,My Aerial is pointing to Moville quality only 70% compared to 100% for Freeview, Picture is breaking up and Moville would need further boosted To Max Power by RTE tomorrow if you are having any problems get in contact with RTE and your local TD i suggest
