The following pages list UK UHF DTT transmitters. These are arranged by region and then grouped into main stations with the relays in alphabetical order. The list includes all main sites (in bold), relays that carry the commercial multiplexes and other public service multiplexes (“Freeview Lite”) of ERP 50 W or more. The list includes the planned changes for the channel 61:62 clearance. High-definition services are included on mux BBC B.

Interference from LTE signals on UHF frequencies will be a problem in many installations, both existing and new. Here are some techniques to mitigate the effects of LTE.
Problem
The main issue will be with the proximity and the levels of power of the LTE transmissions to the existing DTT network. Interference and overload to DTT reception from LTE will be a problem in all areas of the installation. The downlink transmissions from the transmitters will cause problems with interference at the aerial and signal amplification and splitting but there may also be problems from the uplink from LTE consumer mobile devices operating near TVs or other equipment with poorly screened installations and wide band amplifiers.
It is important that the correct choices are made when selecting products for installations to make sure they are suitably protected or designed to mitigate the effects of LTE.
How to mitigate the problems
Aerials Ensure the correct aerial is selected. Ideally only use CAI benchmarked aerials in the correct groups – T and A or select the correct group for the transmitter. (See update transmitter list on page 91).· LTE is vertically polarised. Where possible choose a horizontal transmission. This will give at least 16 dB of rejection to the LTE signal.· Consider the position of the aerial. Can it be re-sited to use the local surroundings as screening? (see fig 1).· Can a different transmitter less susceptible to LTE be used? LTE interference can be reduced if TV reception is currently from a local vertical DTT transmitter, considering the power increase post DSO, now a distant horizontal DTT can be used instead (see fig 2). Similarly, if possible, change the aerial group from a higher frequency band to a lower frequency e.g. group CD to B or group B to A. (see fig 3).

Signal Distribution (Passive and Active) Gain is only needed for channels 21-60. Gain above this will only amplify the LTE interference. Integral filtering of the LTE signal is good practice and can help to reduce the overall problem. Correctly designed filter which is integrated into the products can provide LTE protection. Only use products that conform to the EMC standard EN 50083-2.
Filters High filter rejection of the LTE bands will cure the majority of interference problems from both LTE transmitters and mobile user equipment. Stop band filters or Overlap Blocking filter can be used as appropriate to attenuate unwanted signal. See page 54 for details on filters Filters can also be incorporated into other equipment such as amplifiers to mitigate the problem. See pages 24-35 for details.
Cables, outlet plates and fly leads All these items can be susceptible to LTE if not correctly shielded Fit only high quality cables. The use of CAI benchmarked cable is recommended. Ensure any flyleads conform to EN 609266-2-5:2009 for IEC leads or EN 609266-2-6:2009 for F type. See page 84 for details. Only fit outlet plates that conform to the EMC standard EN 50083-2. See pages 42-43 for details.
