TV snowed out

Without wishing to appear to be promoting one system over another, we have been using Sky's Freesat system for three years now and have never had any reception problems. We signed up before the BBC+ITV's Freesat service became available, and will change to that once our Sky sub (£25 for three years)runs out (Mr Murdoch doesn't need our money). The real benefit is not having to have a 20ft-high aerial stuck on the chimney to get any reception at all from the Beckley mast.

There was local press coverage about delays to the repair at Beckley recently - they need to replace the whole transmitter at the top, and poor reception will continue for some while yet.

Anyone having problems with ITV1 tonight? No picture - only weird sound - through Freeview.

It came back at about 9.00pm. I did find another BBC1 broadcast that I could just about receive but that was very bad; better than nothing, I suppose.

Any news on TV reception in Charlbury after the fire at Beckley today ? I am snowed out on the 4 main terrestrial channels
