Why was it off air? It's the second time in less than a fortnight. And why doesn't Arqiva have an email contact?

12.15 pm and it's just gone off again.

Came back again about 5 minutes later. I hope they can keep it going for the footie tonight!

It's been off air for an hour now (1.10pm) and it's been very dodgy for at least a fortnight. About time Arqiva earned their money.

No sign of BBC4HD on the Todmorden relay. I presume they're not bothering with us second class citizens who have the misfortune to get our TV from a relay. It's tantamount to fraud though, as we pay the full licence fee ; and what is the 303HD channel for as it never appears to broadcast anything.

I retuned a while ago and got the BBC3HD and CbeebiesHD on my TV before they started broadcasting. I've retuned the TV twice since 10th December and it still has RB303HD on it along with BBC3HD and CBeebiesHD but no BBC4HD or BBCNewsHD (which are what I want). I don't see why I should pay the full licence fee if I don't get the full range of BBC services.

I live in between Leeds and Manchester, not in the middle of nowhere. I fail to see why I should have to buy a satellite dish to receive a service that other people receive through their aerials, I don't wish to receive BBC Wales or BBC Scotland, merely the BBC services other people receive from the Emley Moor transmitter. I don't understand your last sentence.

Michael, Idon't wish to deprive anybodyn of anything : that is a ludicrous thing to say. I live in the area covered by the Emley Moor transmitter. I just wish to be able to recieve what that transmitter is broadcasting. Doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Dave Lindsay,
I syted at the beginning that I receive my Freeview via a relay. That relay is supplied by Emley Moor but only provides Freeview Lite. I've accepted that I will only get the commercial channels which the commercial stations are willing to provide, but I do expect to be able to all the HD channels which the BBC transmit so I can see no point in your moronic comment.

That should be "stated" and "be able to receive".
