[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1102556, member: 330868"] COM7 on channel 55 from Ridge Hill is massively strong here, it comes in with no glitches on the log periodic aerial I have in the loft, which is split passively 4-ways (no amplifier). Nice to have the full set of BBCs in HD, but the picture quality is noticeably poorer than the PSB3 HD channels (1-5). Been watching an Icelandic series on BBC Four HD recently and in any low light scenes, there's really bad colour banding. Not sure if this is purely bitrate-starving on COM7 though or the set top box (BT TV) being poor at processing the compressed image. Not sure when COM7 will finally close - I would imagine at least another of the currently SD DVB-T multiplexes could switch to DVB-T2 at that point though - HD aside, it allows them to cram more lego-vision SD channels in!
