Is 4G effecting my Freeview Reception?

Is 4G ruining your picture?

Having issues with your TV Reception? Well if you receive your TV through your Television Aerial/Antenna, then it could be due to the interference coming from the new 4G transmissions. 

What is 4G? Well simply put, it is the new super fast wireless service for mobile phones, a great addition to mobile phone service, but in some areas, because it is transmitted so close to some Freeview channels it can cause interference, as reported on the cai website.... 
Mobile phone operators are now rolling out 4G networks across the UK to provide super-fast wireless broadband. The 800 MHz frequencies used by some 4G services are next to the frequencies used for Freeview. There is a small chance this may cause disruption to Freeview services.

Typical symptoms include a loss of sound, pixelated images or loss of some or all Freeview channels. Cable and satellite TV services are very unlikely to be affected.

at800 is sending postcards to addresses in:

Abertawe, Blaenau Gwent, Casnewydd, Rhondda, Cynon, Taf, Sir Fynwy, Sir Gaerfyrddin, Torfaen

The postcard explains that there is a small chance that viewers may experience some disruption to their Freeview reception when 800 MHz masts go live.


How to Fix your Television Reception Problem?

Having said this, if you are getting reception problems with your Freeview TV, then the only way to know is to call out a professional TV Aerial Engineer. He would need to us a spectrum analyser to determine if your TV reception is having problems due to interference from 4g or because of other issues.

Hi,
It is interesting to read the above. We are digital TV aerial installers in dEvon and 4G has recently arrived!
So far so good, but it is good to know to look out for possible interference.

Yes, 4G is another factor of reception problems after Freeview installation. Secondly, extreme weather conditions can physically affect the satellite or interrupt signal which also affect TV reception.
