Both Macclesfield and Langley are only local repeaters which may have only
recently been erected and at 36 and 6 watts ERP respectively are very low
power and intended to fill dead spots locally, fine if you are in one of
these, but note that they are Vertically polarised.


Have you checked what is being broadcast? Most repeaters carry only 4
analogue channels.

A broadband Ariel may work fine with the two local transmitters but may
struggle receiving digital from Winter Hill.


I fear that any sort of washing powder will not receive
digital TV services. :-)
