Stocksbridge / Hunshelf Bank                   OS Grid Ref SK 275 991

Stocksbridge television transmitter can be seen quite clearly up on Hunshelf Bank, the TV mast is the slim tapered structure at the front. It is a relay off Emley Moor and if one looks closely at it one can see the receiving aerial pointing back at it`s Main Transmitter.
At the top is the array of Log Periodics which are used to rebroadcast the signal into the valley below.
As with most repeaters it is Vertically polarised and it puts out 12W in the C/D group.
It only broadcasts the basic 4 programme channels, i.e. No C5 or Digital though this is
due to change in September 2011 when the DSO occurs. Note that only the three basic PSB MUXES will be transmitted from Stocksbridge, not all six of them. For this reason we would tend to put customers onto Emley (or even Belmont or Bilsdale and they`re both about 65 miles away ! ) if at all possible. Generally speaking the further up the hillside you live, the better your chances of getting a decent television signal off Emley, though we
have done a number of jobs on Manchester Rd which have worked OK. If one looks at "Transmitter Channel Allocations"  you can see that Stocksbridge repeater uses the same frequencies for the 4 basic programme channels as Waltham. You would be very unlucky to suffer any co-channel interference though due to the topography of the area. Apart from anything else there are no houses on Stocksbridge pointing their aerials SE, which is the direction of Waltham.
