Satellite Dish Installation in Christchurch
Freeview in Christchurch arrives from Rowridge, 30 km east of town, so most homes here run a A-group aerial with vertical polarisation. We match satellite installation jobs to the vetted company that actually covers Christchurch.
Reception in Christchurch
Christchurch receives Freeview from the Rowridge transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with vertical polarisation at 200 kW.
Aerials here point ESE (bearing ~103°) toward the mast, 30 km away. At 30 km from the mast, most Christchurch homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Rowridge, installers working Christchurch can often realign to Hannington (74 km north-east) or Midhurst (79 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.
