Band 1 was pretty crowded without trying to interleave ITV in as well.
Co channel interference would have been dreadful.
When I lived in Irvine I could receive .....
Channel 1......BBC1 Northern Ireland.
Channel 2...... BBC1 Carrick Hills
Channel 3 ..... BBC1 Kirk 'O Shorts
Channel 4 .....BBC1 Girvan. (weak signal)
Channel 5 .... BBC1 Toward (weak signal)
Certainly for us it would have been impractical with Shotts carrying STV on say channel 5 then the other strong relays and NI would have been an issue.
