Satellite Dish Installation in Colne

Colne (Lancashire, pop. ~18k) takes its Freeview signal from the Winter Hill mast, 34 km to the south-west. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Colne โ€” one company, no lead auction.

Reception in Colne

Colne receives Freeview from the Winter Hill transmitter , broadcasting on Group A wideband with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.

Aerials here point SW (bearing ~222°) toward the mast, 34 km away. At 34 km from the mast, most Colne homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.

Where terrain or buildings shadow Winter Hill, installers working Colne can often realign to Saddleworth (36 km south) or Emley Moor (43 km south-east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.

Second most important UK transmitter. Highest TV transmitting antenna in the UK at 778m above sea level.
