Below are all of Rob's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Hi, I've noticed in this area around Worthing that new aerials 'looking' at Rowridge on the IOW are now vertical. I understand that the transmitter was given a vertical polarisation during the full switchover to digital, but I understood this was only for local use on the island and Soton.
Looking at Rowridge technical data the vertical signal does appear to be the strongest. Is now worth changing my aerial to vertical bearing in mind that Brighton is also that polarisation albeit higher up the band?
Has anyone encountered problems?

Hi Steve, not at all with horizontal apart from when conditions are slightly 'lifty'. However I have noticed that a property I visit in Worthing town centre where vertical on IOW is used, interference from Brighton is quite apparent. I understand from an aerial installer that Rowridge has gone vertical and very high power in the attempt to overcome inteference from France.
