Oxford Update

Due to a fire on the 13 May 2010, TV broadcasts from the Oxford transmitter are currently from a reserve antenna. As a result, viewers on the fringes of coverage may experience reception difficulties with some channels. We have been advised by the transmission company that services are expected to return to the main antenna by the end of September, once essential repairs have been completed.
