Below are all of Briantist's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Barnaby: That is correct, there are only limited regions on ITV1+1: Yorkshire West, Wales, Central West, London, Granada and Meridian South.
These are "one per advertising region", so everyone in the West and South West of England gets ITV 1 Wales +1.

S Cairns: The MKTV cable system is an oddity, and is different to all other cable systems in the UK, and is still an analogue system.
To quote from Wikipedia:
"Milton Keynes has one of the first Cable TV networks in the UK. However, the cable network is now ageing and in need of modernisation ... many residents have already opted for roof-top aerials and satellite dishes. All homes in the post-designation and/or post expansion areas of Milton Keynes are already on-net cable homes â but (as of Jan 2011) is analogue only. Virgin Media, which leases the cable network from BT until 2012, have yet to announce any plans for the service thereafter."
You can now receive a full digital service using an aerial from Sandy Heath, see Final switchover for Sandy Heath and Nottingham on 13th April in 2011 week 3 | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

Mark A.: Normally the "air works" on a transmitter happen the summer before the actual DSO. Such works occur on "analogue only" transmitters and are tagged as "DSO related" by Digital UK and the BBC.

Robin: If you want stable Freeview reception, mount the aerial outside on the roof.
