Satellite Dish Installation in Croydon
Freeview in Croydon arrives from Crystal Palace, 6 km north of town, so most homes here run a T-group aerial with horizontal polarisation. We match satellite installation jobs to the vetted company that actually covers Croydon.
Reception in Croydon
Croydon receives Freeview from the Crystal Palace transmitter , broadcasting on Group T with horizontal polarisation at 200 kW.
Aerials here point NNE (bearing ~14°) toward the mast, 6 km away. At 6 km from the mast, signal in Croydon is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Crystal Palace, installers working Croydon can often realign to Reigate (17 km south-west) or Guildford (35 km south-west) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
The most important transmitter in the UK by population covered. ~60 mile range across Greater London and Home Counties.
