Satellite Dish Installation in Thurso
Thurso (Highland, pop. ~7k) takes its Freeview signal from the Rosemarkie mast, 118 km to the south. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Thurso — one company, no lead auction.
Reception in Thurso
Thurso receives Freeview from the Rosemarkie transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 100 kW.
Aerials here point SSW (bearing ~198°) toward the mast, 118 km away. At 118 km, Thurso 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 Thurso can often realign to Keelylang Hill (48 km north-east) or Durris (190 km south) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Main transmitter for the Highlands. Inverness, Black Isle, Moray Firth coast.
