Our ITV has been bad all afternoon - bit snowy. (I'm not far off Dronfield)

Hmmm....ta for that.
We are getting zilch on anything - BBC, Freeview et al.

Looks like I'll have to go out for a pint after all.....

I understand that the TV relay station at Unstone has gone down late on Sunday afternoon, probably due to an electricity supply problem as a result of all the rain we've been having recently.

not much help im afraid, we dont have terrestrial TV (and signal was never great here when we did). Ours is all via SKY, which is ok so far despite weather

No bbc 1 or 2 here in stocksbridge. The link provided by Satman2222 (thankyou), shows failure for us! There are no other channels either apart from itv through another channel........and that isn't up to much. No signal on the digi box for sky news either. Ah well.......at least my lappy works. lol.

Yeah, stocksbridge again... nothing on normal telly except fuzz! Didnt think that this far up we would be served by Unstone.. thought it had something to do with the big transmitter up on Green Moor. I have sent an email to the BBC people asking for an update when we might get telly back... wont hold my breath!! Any news will pop it on here...

We've had an intermittent fault on our digital link. (Seems to be worse when there's thunder storms) I thought digital was supposed to be better.
