Kilkeel Tx problems

    Was anyone else having problems with their UK channels this evening? We had no signal whatsoever for much of the evening. BBC2 came back on suddenly about 5 minutes ago, and UTV and Channel 4 came back earlier than that.

    Edit: The transmitter which supplies Kilkeel with a signal was damaged in the storm, though the BBC website only mentioned a failure for BBC1 and 2.

    The transmitter which supplies Kilkeel with a signal

    Not to mention parts of Dublin :)

    The transmitter in question was Killowen Mountain, a 150 watt transmitter which has directional aerials AFAIK, pointed eastwards towards Kilkeel. (It broadcasts on the same channels as Divis) Somehow I doubt that north Dublin can receive a signal directly from it:D
