get it  with a set top box or Digital TV - providing you have 
an outside  aerial.  I would have thought you would have a reasonable line of 
 
sight to Bluebell Hill - or is that too far away.


Our external digital aerial is pointing at Bluebell Hill (which is  our 
nearest transmitter) but even that's showing 'low signal' and we get lots of  
drop-outs (of the signal, not tramps!), but that may improve when the signals  
(that we aren't expected to get!) are boosted at switchover. The non-digital  
stations we could receive are Sudbury (our preferred one), Dover and Crystal  
Palace.
 
But we also have a satellite dish and Sky has decided that our  BBC station 
should be BBC East (E), which is what we like anyway.
 
In case you are wondering why we have Freeview AND Sky, it's because the  Sky 
signal sometimes has problems getting through heavy rainclouds and the tree  
in the garden three doors down, so we use the Freeview built-in to the TV  as 
a backup.
