My local installer contacted me just before lunch to inform me he would be calling round just after lunch. When he arrived he said he'd had a call from a chap who was part of the transmitter group. The advice was where possible to switch over to the Sutton Coldfield transmitter.
Without more ado he put his ladders up, un-clipped the new aerial rotated it round a few degrees and turned the poles to horizontal (previously vertical). Re-tuned and result - I have now got COM 7 and COM 8. Signal strength is down at 55% mind you but quality is 100%.
Most of the other muxes are around 90% strength 100% quality with one notable exception. Channel 36 which Digital UK lists as 'Local' is only around 38% though again strength is 100%.
I didn't have this mux from Fenton. The channels are 7 Made in Birmingham, 68 truTV, 50 Sony Movie Channel +1 69 Sony Crime +1 207 Tiny Pop and 208 Pop Max. What does Local mean?
The frequencies now are as follows - 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 45, 46, 55 and 56
