Satellite Dish Installation in Portree

Portree (Highland, pop. ~3k) takes its Freeview signal from the Rosemarkie mast, 125 km to the east. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Portree — one company, no lead auction.

Reception in Portree

Portree receives Freeview from the Rosemarkie transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.

Aerials here point E (bearing ~80°) toward the mast, 125 km away. At 125 km, Portree sits toward the fringe of coverage — installers usually fit a high-gain aerial on a raised mast here, and will meter the signal before quoting.

Where terrain or buildings shadow Rosemarkie, installers working Portree can often realign to Angus (217 km south-east) or Black Hill (223 km south-east) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.

Main transmitter for the Highlands. Inverness, Black Isle, Moray Firth coast.
