Below are all of StevensOnln1's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Simon McCurdy: There has been planned engineering work affecting the Winter Hill transmitter over the last few weeks, so it may just be that the signal strength has been reduced slightly too low to be receivable while the work is taking place. Unfortunately they never say what the work involves or when it is due to be completed.

Nicholas Anderson: This page lists TV channels and radio stations available on free to air TV platforms. As you've previously been told, community radio stations are listed in the analogue radio pages, as none of them are broadcast on TV platforms.

nick horrex: Streaming channels in the 260-299 range broadcast a portal on one of the Freeview multiplexes, which gives the TV the URL (address) to connect to and play the stream. The TV needs an internet connection, it doesn't need to be linked to a PC or laptop.

Greysteel Viewer: The transmitter engineering posts come from an automated feed provided by BBC Engineering. It may involve work taking place on the tower itself or the transmitter equipment, but could be due to other things too. Unfortunately they don't provide any further details.

William Wood: Talking Pictures is carried on the ArqB/COM6 multiplex, whis broadcast on UHF channel 39+ from Sutton Coldfield. Most receivers have a manual tuning option in the menu somewhere, let us know the make and model if you can't find it.

Tom Brooke: The transmitter engineering posts immediately above yours warn of planned engineering work this week and a fault last night. Did you attempt to retune when you had no signal? This may have caused the existing tuning data to be deleted. Have you checked whether any near neighbours have also lost signal? Also, are all of your TVs connected to the same aerial?

David Johnson: The BBC are currently warning of high pressure conditions causing reception issues in various parts of the country. Unfortunately nothing can be done about it other than waiting for the weather conditions to change.

Henry Porcher: You've posted on The Wrekin DAB page, but over on The Wrekin Freeview page it shows that all TV services are horizontally polarised.

Martin Fox: BBC 3 Counties is broadcast using DAB (rather than DAB+) which should make it receivable on any DAB or DAB+ radio within the coverage area. You can check which stations you are predicted to receive at the link below.

Roger: Arqiva are paid by the broadcasters and multiplex operators, who probably do have access to more detailed information. Arqiva are not generally a public facing organisation and have no obligation to provide information to anyone other than their paying clients.
