Karen Mckeever: You are predicted to receive all the services from Darvel and also Rosneath.
It could be that your aerial points at the Millburn Muir relay.
If your aerial is shared, then you will need to speak to the housing association.

michael: This does suggest that your dish is too small to pick up the Astra 2D satellite. This satellite has a "footprint" (service area) that is focused on the UK and to use it outside this area requires a large dish.

Barry: If your device has no digital tuner it cannot record from Freeview directly. You can only use it to record from another Freeview device, and this cannot be a television set.

Nick: The signal quality actually refers to the BER, the Bit Error Rate, which is the number of bits transmitted before a error is made.
The planning standard has a BER of 10^7 (ie, one error every ten million bits).
As the transmissions have Forward Error Correction (FEC) in them, this error can be detected and corrected.
Most Freeview devices will show this as "quality: 100%".

Brianpj: The service is still listed, and there are still free-to-air digital versions of Eurosport on 19.2E.

leah: No, you won't. You will have to pay Sky an additional "Multiroom" fee each month to have the same channels (and also the ability to record/pause/play).

Mike Weller: Only the Mendip transmitter will provide you with any Freeview service today, so that is probably your best option, but you may have problems with two of the multiplexes until they go on full power on 28th March 2012.

Wilf: You are not able to receive the commercial multiplexes from Stockland Hill or Beacon Hill and the Tiverton relay also does not carry them.
