Communal Aerial Systems (IRS / MATV) in Cumbernauld

In Cumbernauld, TV aerials point south-east to the Black Hill transmitter, 12 km away — Group K, horizontal polarisation. We route communal aerial systems enquiries here to the one vetted installation company covering G postcodes.

Reception in Cumbernauld

Cumbernauld receives Freeview from the Black Hill transmitter , broadcasting on Group K with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.

Aerials here point SE (bearing ~142°) toward the mast, 12 km away. At 12 km from the mast, signal in Cumbernauld is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.

Where terrain or buildings shadow Black Hill, installers working Cumbernauld can often realign to Darvel (42 km south-west) or Craigkelly (49 km east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.

Covers central Scotland including Edinburgh and Glasgow. Fifth largest UK transmitter by population covered.
