Ofcom publish no latitude and longitude for television sites. The transform is verified rather than assumed: on the 3,403 radio records that carry both, it reproduces Ofcom's own coordinates to within 0.1 m.
On the map
Llangurig UHF is not the strongest signal anywhere the model predicts — it is shown here in place. That is normal for a relay, which fills in inside a main station's area.
Television This site carries the three public-service multiplexes and none of the three commercial ones, which is the normal arrangement at a relay — 1,059 of 1,169 sites are like this. Channels on SDN, ARQ A and ARQ B are simply not transmitted here, and no aerial will recover them; they need a main station. PSB3 (BBC B) is the UK's only DVB-T2 multiplex and carries every HD channel. Losing the HD channels while keeping the rest is therefore a single-multiplex fault rather than an aerial problem.
