[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1081961, member: 330868"] Seemingly, Bruernish does still rely on its off-air feed for a lot of the time! But falls back to Satback on a regular basis when that fails. If you look here - [URL="https://ukfree.tv/transmitters/tv/Bruernish/PGSTART730/"]Bruernish (Eilean Siar, Scotland) Freeview Light transmitter[/URL] In the comments they're showing a feed of the BBC Reception transmitter fault information for the transmitter. You can see the exact times where Satback is being used (pretty often!) by all the faults logged as "Wrong regional programme due to a fault" (for the reasons you've mentioned already - no STV HD, no BBC Scotland/BBC Alba, and BBC One England HD instead of Scotland). Presumably outside of these fault times it's managing to receive the correct feed via its receiving aerial. It's amazing some of these Western Isles transmitters seem to be able to get a feed from mainland transmitters at all considering the long sea-paths! [/QUOTE]
