Matlock
At present I (and many others in the Cromford area)cannot receive the analogue C5 signal, nor Freeview, through a standard analogue aerial. Will the Freeview signal be boosted after the analogue switch off in this area in order that Freeview can be received, in which case I only need purchase a Freeview box? Or will it be necessary to erect a satellite dish anbd get a freesat box?
Address: 45 Intake Lane Cromford Matlock DE4 3RH

nicky freeling:
Go to Teletext page 284 on BBC1, BBC2, ITV and Channel 4.
If the page displays properly, your aerial should be OK to receive digital TV.
If not there is always the option to go Freesat.
