RE: Poll - FreeView Terrestrial Digital TV...

["Kevin Hawkins" <lists@xxxxxxx>]

I am having a load of problems on all the channels except the BBC ones and
The Hits - ITV and C4 C5 are breaking up very frequently - the sound is
particularly bad the picture not too bad - is this because less bandwidth
is
allocated to these channels - it makes them unwatchable at times.
I am line of sight to the transmitter and at installation 6dB of
attentuation was  put in - I have tried removing this (and increasing it
just in case) but no difference.

Kevin
