[backstage] Finding out which transmitter I'm receiving from?

2011-03-29 Thread Paul Rissen
Hello,

No idea if anyone will be able to help with this ­ but is there an easy-ish
way to find out which transmitter I¹m receiving TV signal from?

I¹m trying to work out whether I¹m getting it from Hemel Hempstead or
Crystal Palace ­ the former is closer to me, but doesn¹t have an HD signal
yet, whereas the latter is much further away, but has HD.

I¹m in a block of flats, so can¹t really start moving the aerial around...

Any advice?

Try rescanning your Freeview it might tell you which transmitter it is
getting its EIT data from.
