Below are all of Michael Bradshaw-Roberts 's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.A few years ago I was in a bed and breakfast in Blackpool and I was flicking through the channels in my room, and came across a fussy calendar news, I checked the channel on the tuning menu and it was on 47. It just shows you the strength of Emily moor to be received over 80 miles away, I wonder if it still reaches Blackpool. And it probably makes it the only transmitter in the UK that can be received on both the west and east coasts?

Hi has anyone else noticed there signal quality keep dropping? on ITV and BBC? multiplexes? I am in WN2 1SZ Aspull wigan. I know I am out of the area but I normally get full signal on ITV and a medium one on BBC, so shouldnt that remain the case or is it the weather causing the problem? any thoughts or comments would be greatly received thank you.

This map is wrong, I was getting Capital FM very clear in the car at the Trafford centre in Manchester, With full RDS. and also I can get it at home In Aspull Wigan very clear with RDS with a roof top Ariel. I have also heard of people getting it on the Wirral and also in Southport.

I know this is going to sound very strange, but as anyone else had a problem with the sound from emly more making like a stuttering noise? like a cd dose when it is scratched? is this due to a bad signal? can anyone shed any light on this for me it has happened a few times for a couple of months plus now, mainly on ITV 1? thanks for any help if given. I am in aspull Wigan and yes I know I should be using winter hill but sometimes like watching calendar news.

signal strength and quality are showing fine by the way the quality is reading full and the strength at about 3/4 my TV free view even reads bit errors and it is showing none.

HI mike is it different then for FM radio? as west yorkshires local radio station the pulse, signal travels well into Greater Manchester as far has Bolton and beyond, you would be able to get it here if wish Fm was not more or less on the same frequency which is 102.5 which is fairly high up on the FM frequency list.
