Re: Freeview, What a Mess (IMO).
These adult channels are leasing bandwidth on DTT but are not strictly part of freeview, just as channels can lease bandwidth on the Astra satellite but not be part of freesat/sky. In fact, these channels are paying more than their satellite counterparts to be on DTT.

Why? DTT is presently received in 18+ Million homes, compared to satellite that gets to 11 Million at present. TV companies that can afford to will always go for the biggest potential audiance, regardless of the technology used, and at the moment that is DTT.

The reception problem you have is more likely aerial related than equipment related. Might be an idea to get the aerial system checked.
