  • maverickladys maggie (@maverickladys) reported from Barrow-in-Furness District, England

    @RickSacrop @neal_preshner Hmm, where I live can’t get Freeview signal, still have to pay licence fee. I have to pay for Sky so I can watch TV, hardly fair in my book. Sooner it’s scrapped the better!

    @YoungmanMj @Owenins That's way beyond my technical expertise, and I would expect large swathes of England can pick-up S4C via Freeview anyway? S4C would be paying for broadcasting in Wales in any event, if they could afford it, and it's the spill over that would be the problem?

    @JanetMcwee We have cable, But also freeview aerial in case cable goes down.

    @FreeviewTV having major signal problems all day today, either no signal at all or scrabbled signal on all channels. Did a retune & now only have 35 channels. What’s going on Freeview this a terrible service

  • rhydsnewi Rhydian Edwards (@rhydsnewi) reported

    @LankyCarGuy Because Freeview transmitters have only a fixed number of frequencies they can broadcast a signal on. Each frequency can carry a number of separate channels, but that number depends on the quality. Reduce the quality and you can fit more channels (and more revenue) in.

    @utdfox We didn't have Sky and it was never shown on the Freeview channels. I did watch the Pokemon DPPT animes, Bakugan, Beyblade, Tokyo Mew Mew and Digimon Data Squad though.

    @xhi2001 that and kikis delivery service were the first 2 i watched cause it was on one of the free movie channels u get with freeview and i sat and watched them and then watched them again after that

    Bloody great. Apparently there's planned engineering works on the Mendip #Freeview transmitter so we can't get a single bloody channel. Why BT uses Freeview for half their channels instead of transmitting them all through their net service I don't know.
