We don't seem to get any problems through over-amplification - I think because it is loft mounted and then shared between five outlets it may even it out. Will look into the Group W aerial suggestion to see if it is economically viable (posh way of saying can I afford it!).

MikeP: I did respond but neglected to link to your post. Thanks for the information. But I wonder what is the purpose of the Storeton mast unless there is an intention to upgrade to all the HD channels in the future?

Stumbled upon this site whilst searching for information about the Storeton relay station so thanks to those who run the site, it is very informative. Perhaps there are clues here that are too technical for me. I live so close to the Storeton site I think a piece of damp string would give me a signal, but miss out on a few HD channels. We have an amplified loft aerial supplying signals to five outlets in the house but I am not sure turning it to face Winter Hill and rotating from vertical to horizontal would guarantee a signal, My question is simply this: Are the "missing" HD channels likely to be included on some future upgrade at Storeton or am I best investing in a contractor to fit an external aerial to align with Winter Hill?
