Communal Aerial Systems (IRS / MATV) in Oldham

Serving Oldham and the wider Greater Manchester area, our network handles communal aerial systems with transmitter-aware advice โ€” which here means Winter Hill (Group A wideband, horizontal) at 28 km. One installer per enquiry, free quotes.

Reception in Oldham

Oldham receives Freeview from the Winter Hill transmitter , broadcasting on Group A wideband with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.

Aerials here point WNW (bearing ~290°) toward the mast, 28 km away. At 28 km from the mast, most Oldham homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.

Where terrain or buildings shadow Winter Hill, installers working Oldham can often realign to Saddleworth (6 km east) or Emley Moor (31 km east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.

Second most important UK transmitter. Highest TV transmitting antenna in the UK at 778m above sea level.
