Satellite Dish Installation in Launceston
In Launceston, TV aerials point south to the Caradon Hill transmitter, 15 km away — Group A, horizontal polarisation. We route satellite installation enquiries here to the one vetted installation company covering PL postcodes.
Reception in Launceston
Launceston receives Freeview from the Caradon Hill transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.
Aerials here point SSW (bearing ~201°) toward the mast, 15 km away. At 15 km from the mast, signal in Launceston is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Caradon Hill, installers working Launceston can often realign to Huntshaw Cross (44 km north-east) or Beacon Hill (58 km south-east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Serves east/central Cornwall (Truro, Falmouth to Plymouth, Bude) and north/west Devon (Barnstaple, Okehampton, Salcombe).
