Freesat Installation in Sandwell
Sandwell (West Midlands, pop. ~342k) takes its Freeview signal from the Sutton Coldfield mast, 16 km to the north-east. For freesat installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Sandwell — one company, no lead auction.
Reception in Sandwell
Sandwell receives Freeview from the Sutton Coldfield transmitter , broadcasting on Group B with horizontal polarisation at 200 kW.
Aerials here point NE (bearing ~49°) toward the mast, 16 km away. At 16 km from the mast, most Sandwell homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Sutton Coldfield, installers working Sandwell can often realign to The Wrekin (41 km north-west) or Ridge Hill (67 km south-west) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Third most important UK transmitter by population. Coverage extends Chipping Norton (Oxon) to Stoke-on-Trent.
