TV Aerial Installation in Thatcham
In Thatcham, TV aerials point south to the Hannington transmitter, 11 km away — Group E, horizontal polarisation. We route TV aerial installation enquiries here to the one vetted installation company covering RG postcodes.
Reception in Thatcham
Thatcham receives Freeview from the Hannington transmitter , broadcasting on Group E with horizontal polarisation at 50 kW.
Aerials here point S (bearing ~173°) toward the mast, 11 km away. At 11 km from the mast, signal in Thatcham is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Hannington, installers working Thatcham can often realign to Oxford (43 km north) or Guildford (53 km east) — 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.
