Is the Knockmoyle Transmitter best for Saorview in Tralee, County Kerry

Stefan asks;

I live in Tralee Co. Kerry. Can you tell me UHF group for Tralee. It would appear that I might use either the Mullaghanish or Knockmoyle tranmitter. Can you clarify for me please?

Our answer;

STEP 1: Which Transmitter

go to:

  • digital tv aerial guide
  • from this you map you can see the main transmitters
    • their coverage area
    • and the type of UHF aerial that is needed.
    • e.g. Tralee would appear to fall within the reach of Mullaghanish (group B UHF aerial)

However.......

STEP 1 - Extra: Sub Transmitters

  • the vast majority of customers will pick up their signal from the main transmitters but
    • if you live outside a major city
    • and along the coast
    • and in a generally mountainous area
  • then maybe quick check out the list of sub-transmitters on the Saorview website
  • You can now see that there is a sub-transmitter called
  • "Knockmoyle which is broadcasting on channel 52"
  • By again checking our saorveiw transmitter page on TVTrade.ie
  • we can now see this would indicate that this is a group C/D Aerial
