Great site. Does anyone know why Stratford upon Avon gets such a bad deal via Lark Stoke? There never was Channel 5 on it and now there are only 6 HD channels and fewer SD channels than surrounding areas can get from Sutton Coldfield. It's not uncommon around here to see neighbouring houses with one aerial aimed at LS and next door 180 degrees the opposite, presumably at SC. Mine is aligned for LS and a manual tune to the SC frequencies gets me nothing. I have Sky so am not too bothered but I think it's unfair for the government to extort the same licence fee from everyone and not deliver the full Freeview service.
