A TV transmitter shouldn't make much difference but MW ones will.
R4 Tyne 603, R5 Live 693, R Cumbria 756, R Scotland 810, R Cumbria
837, Talksport 1053 & 1089 are all currently putting dips in the
number of symbols that the carriers near those frequencies can carry.
Probably knocking 0.5 to 1Mbps off the sync speed.


Look on the bright side, the BBC are planning on shutting some MW Tx's
down soon...


I thought that had already happened for the few stations involved, none
of which are affecting my ADSL.
