Hi.
The coverage on Band one from Kirk 'o Shotts was quite incredible. If you have ever been a trip up north on the A82 and had a portable TV you'd be surprised by where perfectly good reception went to. In days gone by I could get good signals in Glencoe and beyond Fort William. I carried round a Philips T-vette which has very good gain and even on its rod aerial reception was excellent. Conversely UHF was grim by the time you are up to Duck Bay at the bottom of Loch lomond it was very poor. Digital is odd as it can pop up in the most unexpected places.
