Freeview Installation in Edinburgh
Freeview in Edinburgh arrives from Craigkelly, 13 km north of town, so most homes here run a A-group aerial with horizontal polarisation. We match freeview installation jobs to the vetted company that actually covers Edinburgh.
Reception in Edinburgh
Edinburgh receives Freeview from the Craigkelly transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 20 kW.
Aerials here point NNW (bearing ~348°) toward the mast, 13 km away. At 13 km from the mast, signal in Edinburgh is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Craigkelly, installers working Edinburgh can often realign to Black Hill (44 km west) or Selkirk (51 km south-east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Serves Fife and the south Central Belt around Edinburgh. Stirling and Falkirk through to Crail and Dunbar.
