Never to the dark side Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 If any one has not yet located Radio Bristol on Freeview, its channel 719. As we are the away Bristol Team we SHOULD have full live coverage of our game. Not yet available on Cable Regarding Sky I think it MAY be available on a manual tune. Maybe the guys and gals who live in the outer reaches of the aerial. Cheltenham, Taunton, and swindon can let me know what they get on freeview channel 719 in their aerial.

CotswoldRed Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Can't imagine you'll ever be able to get it through a dish as they'd lose their regional control, impacting streaming income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 BBC London is the only local radio channel allowed on Sky,legally! and in the London aerial. Although the codes are avaiable to obtain BBC radio London from the Sky dish from anywhere in the U.K. as well as Europe. By the way what does the Cotswols aerial get on Freeview channel 719?

Not sure as I use freesat. Some locals point towards Gloucester though most towards Oxford so probably one or other of those local stations. At least in my neck of the Cotswolds. Here's a boring fact for the day - a third of all people living in the Cotswolds could fit inside the new Ashton Gate from 2016. There really are no buggers here at all.

ChippenhamRed Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I've only just discovered freeview 719 and it's a revelation here in Chippenham - the first time I've been able to listen to games at home rather than edging up and down the driveway hunting for a weak signal in the car!

Never to the dark side Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 ChippenhamRed is one very happy customer and than you for the info. I think that means your TV pictures come from Mendip So don't turn your aerial the other way round or you might end up with Oxford United commentary.

Never to the dark side Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 icegiant I think your TV pictures are coming off the big Solihull transmitter. May I suggest you contact an aerial fitter and see if he can get an aerial pointing towards the Bristol area. You'll then have crystal clear commentaries when Bristol City are away frrom Home.

Unfortunately we have to park Cook's motor on the road. You know, just up from the electric gates, by the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbored Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Why do we never get DAB coverage every time I can't go and tune in the radio it's always the sags with the DAB. I thought it depends on who was home/away but obviously not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
