Satellite Dish Installation in Reading
Freeview in Reading arrives from Hannington, 25 km south-west of town, so most homes here run a E-group aerial with horizontal polarisation. We match satellite installation jobs to the vetted company that actually covers Reading.
Reception in Reading
Reading receives Freeview from the Hannington transmitter , broadcasting on Group E with horizontal polarisation at 50 kW.
Aerials here point SW (bearing ~229°) toward the mast, 25 km away. At 25 km from the mast, most Reading homes get reliable reception from a standard roof-mounted yagi.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Hannington, installers working Reading can often realign to Guildford (38 km south-east) or Oxford (40 km north) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Covers Berkshire, north Hampshire and parts of Surrey and Wiltshire. Basingstoke, Reading, Newbury, Winchester.
