Thanks for the advice from everybody, I'm currently waiting
for Digital Help Scheme to get back to me to arrange
an aerial installation.

They've replied and said that as Ken's receiving 16 channels
he's not entitled to an aerial installation. Makes no
difference that the channels he receives are constantly
breaking up into square boxes and the sound stutters
constantly, the box has found 16 channels, end of argument.

One of the things that they rely upon heavily is that Tx power is
going up considerably at DSO - Crosspool goes from the current
50W to 1KW which will give a signal voltage increase of something
over 4 times which ought to clear the pixelation.

However you do have a claim against the Digital Help Scheme as to
say that if you can receive three muxes it is enough is not
acceptable when the Tx you are using is radiating six!
Furthermore three of the six muxes are and will be in aerial
group B where existing analogue transmissions are in group A, so
a wideband aerial will become mandatory.

You say that Ken has line of sight to Crosspool but from which
direction? Crosspool has directional signals to avoid
interference from other sites. Maybe he should be using a
different transmitter?
