Mr Lindsay
Wonder if you hold a ARS call???
Saw the pictures in the link.
Memories of Marconi as part of the Tx team in Chelmsford setting up the IBA Ch4 national upgrade. Never went on site though but had great contacts with the IBA/BBC ARS engineers. had the 4 port Tx combining systems explained, 4 TX in one combiner going out to one aerial and each Tx electrically not seeing any other port!!!
long time ago now!!! now learning fast on digi TV!!

Dave Lindsay,
Thanks for the post. I knew we had tuned to the wrong channels & didnt realise digibox went by channel rather than Signal strength! Didnt think we could Rx Welsh Tx, wondered if Winter Hill NW channels were under maintenance so weaker. I had cleared all channels by removing Ae and re-tuned then put Ae back & carried out a full new installation but it put low channels as default! Removed Ae retuned & put back Ae @ Ch 50 and lo it now defaulted to NW Tx. BTW its a long time since I saw the Winter Hill Tx as was part of the team involved in the then IBA/Ch 4 analogue upgrade at Winter Hill in 1980s when at Marconis in Chelmsford!! Where does the time go
Thanks Chris
