    DVB-T does not tolerate co channel interference - as demonstrated by Divis and 3Rock on 30. RTE should sync Truskmore and CC. There are large areas of overlap where antennas cannot get the 25db signal difference between both sites

    That statement on its own is meaningless: doesn't it perform within the limits set by the signal parameters used, & hence the network planning?

    Aren't those dBm readings negative (minus) numbers? So the reading for CC is higher, not lower.

    The new frequencies must just work better in non-LOS conditions.


    Sorry, my mistake, it is dBuV not dbm. CC is reading 71.5dBuV

    Maghera Transmitter channel change:

    Not my problem - a friend in need with little technical know how - Frequencies changed from 48 & 55 to 46 & 48;

    She has reported a loss of RTE 1 - and while I've tried to talk her through a re-tune it has not been successful.

    i would appreciate if somebody could clarify what stations are now being broadcast on the new frequency (46) and should she have lost more than RTE 1 with frequency 48 going off the air.
    (my transmitter is Three Rock)

    Thanks!!!
