| NEWS | New Bilsdale Freeview mast to go live with first services

Almost two years of Freeview TV reception disruption is almost over for viewers in North Yorkshire, Teesside and parts of County Durham. The new replacement transmitter mast at Bilsdale officially went live on Monday 22nd May, initially carrying the core Freeview channels in standard definition. Other channels will follow later. No action was, nor will be, required for most viewers, but they were urged to try retuning their TV or box if they experienced any loss of signal from 22nd May. Additionally some viewers who previously received help from “Project Restore” to restore their TV reception have received letters with further instructions on what to do from next week.
