    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    @FreeviewAdvice hi Freeview, wondering if you can help. Just moved into a new build and your postcode checker says we won't get Freeview - not sure if this is true or just because we have a new postcode? Don't want to waste money on an aerial if we can't get it!

  • iamdanrice Dan Rice 🦖 (@iamdanrice) reported

    @AlixSocial Yeah the first time I got anything close was when freeview was launched! Literally never lived in a house with Sky

  • marshallmaps Roversgotmeagain (@marshallmaps) reported

    @911Amelia @anetevt @SkyNewsBreak Why would anyone watch Sky News? I can get their "News" channel on Freeview but have hidden the channel to keep my blood pressure down.

    @BJElsey_ @GBNEWS I've never seen so much hype and so little information. Information about when is it actually going to start and apart from Freeview, WHERE ELSE? I'm losing any enthusiasm I had.

  • JaseHeeley Jase Heeley (@JaseHeeley) reported

    @BuddClair As of this point, it looks as though there's no way we'll ever subscribe to a paid T.V. service like Sky or Virgin ever again. I'm happy to pay the licence fee as it stands, but Freeview's more than adequate, alongside Netflix and Spamazon.

    @JamesCridland I’ve just got a HDHomeRun box that has two Freeview tuners in, and makes the channels available as IPTV on your local network. Then the app Channels (which is available for basically everything) is used to view, and downloads the EPG from the web, and it works great.

    @UladhGael @ClarNiUigin Here, it's channel 9 on Freeview but 115 on Sky. BBC Scotland. That's probably no help whatsoever though.

  • Nixed81 Nicholas O (@Nixed81) reported

    Freeview reception seems down again right now. The picture is all heavily pixelated. I've tried it using 2 different aerial cables and 3 different televisions. I just forked out on a new 4k tv last month. Not happpy!

  • lilastromech mischajaye (@lilastromech) reported

    Is Freeview down in Liverpool at the moment?

  • racefaceec90 adam cunningham (@racefaceec90) reported

    @discoveryplus thank the gods this is subscription only,as i will never ever have to watch any of it on freeview. jesus christ can your bloody adverts too (every 5 mins or less it seems on just about all channels). i will never want to watch any of your programs.
