free view channels - t rowe (11th Dec 2013 - 17:21:42) has anybody else having trouble in getting free view channels in the liphook area today They were rubbish around 8am this morning from the Hannington transmitter.

Re: free view channels - John (11th Dec 2013 - 18:33:16) Yes, intermittent this morning and just gone again at 6.30pm.

Re: free view channels - Mark S (11th Dec 2013 - 23:11:46) Yes and not able to get new BBC HD channels (news and BBC Four etc) - not impressed. Hopefully it is just temporary with the fog.

Re: free view channels - Mark S (12th Dec 2013 - 11:24:07) Just spent a long time on the phone to freeview and the BBC. It's quite complicated but apparently Hannington signal may be turned up in Jan and we will get better signal and new BBC HD channels. Until this week we got everything apart from BBC 1, BBC News, BBC Four from Midhurst with a strong signal. BBC have no plans at any time to put latest HD channels on Midhurst, which seems crazy. I think I may get aerial turned towards Hannington and hope signal improves. Atmospheric problems are due to lift on Friday. Hannington currently gives the strongest signal in many parts of Liphook. Although still suffers from atmospheric disturbances. If you currently point at Midhurst and are not normally getting perfect Freeview then try getting the aerial turned (almost exactly 180 degrees - approx NW)towards Hannington and re-tune.

Re: free view channels - Jan (14th Dec 2013 - 18:03:00) I have had trouble with freeview, I was talking to a friend who lives in the West Country, and she has had the same problem, so it seems to be country wide, I hope freeview get the problem sorted soon.

Re: free view channels - peter (15th Dec 2013 - 22:31:18) Thanks for the update on Midhurst and lack of BBC HD channels. For those with a spare satellite dish Freesat has all the new HD channels and is relatively free from atmospherics.

HASLEMERE TOWN PLATE. - M G TANNER (16th Dec 2013 - 09:39:52) My wife has tried to purchase a Plate of Haslemere with no success, if anyone has a plate that they no longer require we would very much like to buy it from you. Phone 723472

Re: free view channels - Mike G (16th Dec 2013 - 14:12:29) Whereas a dish is required to receive fabulous FreeSat reception, I suspect a "plate" will not achieve the same level of success, leastwise a Haslemere one.
