Satellite Dish Installation in Castle Douglas
In Castle Douglas, TV aerials point east to the Caldbeck transmitter, 57 km away — Group K, horizontal polarisation. We route satellite installation enquiries here to the one vetted installation company covering DG postcodes.
Reception in Castle Douglas
Castle Douglas receives Freeview from the Caldbeck transmitter , broadcasting on Group K with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.
Aerials here point ESE (bearing ~111°) toward the mast, 57 km away. At 57 km, Castle Douglas sits toward the fringe of coverage — installers usually fit a high-gain aerial on a raised mast here, and will meter the signal before quoting.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Caldbeck, installers working Castle Douglas can often realign to Darvel (78 km north) or Selkirk (101 km north-east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Took over TV duties from Sandale post digital switchover. Serves Cumbria, Lake District, eastern Dumfries and Galloway.
