Satellite Dish Installation in Galashiels
Galashiels (Scottish Borders, pop. ~13k) takes its Freeview signal from the Selkirk mast, 7 km to the south. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Galashiels — one company, no lead auction.
Reception in Galashiels
Galashiels receives Freeview from the Selkirk transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 10 kW.
Aerials here point S (bearing ~170°) toward the mast, 7 km away. At 7 km from the mast, signal in Galashiels is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Selkirk, installers working Galashiels can often realign to Craigkelly (57 km north-west) or Black Hill (72 km north-west) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
