Yorkshire TV Reception

[WoodlandsCamper]

I thought all of the UK TV reception has now gone digital, however I noticed this in the site brochure for the CC site at Barnard Castle:

TV reception on site is poor. Site has a
TV booster system in place, giving out a
analogue signal, receiving 12 channels.

Are there still backwater places in Yorkshire with analogue signals or does the brochure need updating? I'm not sure if our new TV has analogue capability.

Whoops, I meant Bolton Abbey, which is in Yorks. Afraid I'm a southerner so don't know northern geography, nor castles/abbeys that start with a 'B'.

Looks like the CC need to update their site paperwork then.

The following is from the King's link.
Eh lad. Tyne Tees TV in Yorkshire. hmy:
Well that's what we will get at Black Bull.
Maybe Sir Gabs can help us with the Geordie lingo.
Maybe Sir Crying could be our interpreter

"This address is predicted to receive a good terrestrial TV signal from the Bilsdale transmitter in the Tyne Tees region. Your local BBC news service is Look North and North East Tonight for ITV."

Your available channels depend on which transmitter you are receiving your television signal from.

But at least the Woosies will have time to use the Woosie Pot for a final push if the Russkis decided to send anything pointed and very fast and very loud our way with the early warning system not too far away :evil:

As a local to the area the TV reception via freeview can be poor in the Wharfe valley. Most locals use digital boxes to access TV. You may also find that mobile phone reception is poor or non existant . However the scenery in this valley is excellent and several walks are easy to access from the site. Enjoy your stay in this part of the world

hi all, just like to say, Yorkshire has been digital for years, there is no analogue signal from Emley moor, I have a direct sight line to it and it transmits only in digital, also if you are north of York, and find the reception poor, switch the ariel towards the east coast, as you may get a better signal from the Bilsdale transmitter outside Scarbrough .
