Satellite Dish Installation in St Albans
St Albans (Hertfordshire, pop. ~82k) takes its Freeview signal from the Crystal Palace mast, 41 km to the south-east. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering St Albans — one company, no lead auction.
Reception in St Albans
St Albans receives Freeview from the Crystal Palace transmitter , broadcasting on Group T with horizontal polarisation at 200 kW.
Aerials here point SSE (bearing ~154°) toward the mast, 41 km away. At 41 km out, a high-gain aerial is often the right call in St Albans, particularly for bungalows and sheltered streets.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Crystal Palace, installers working St Albans can often realign to Sandy Heath (43 km north) or Reigate (58 km south) — 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.
