Freesat Installation in Southampton

Southampton (Hampshire, pop. ~254k) takes its Freeview signal from the Rowridge mast, 26 km to the south. For freesat installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Southampton — one company, no lead auction.

Reception in Southampton

Southampton receives Freeview from the Rowridge transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with vertical polarisation at 200 kW.

Aerials here point S (bearing ~174°) toward the mast, 26 km away. At 26 km from the mast, most Southampton homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.

Where terrain or buildings shadow Rowridge, installers working Southampton can often realign to Hannington (46 km north) or Midhurst (48 km east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.

One of only two UK main transmitters using dual horizontal+vertical polarisation. Serves South Coast from Southampton to Brighton.
