15 Nov Tired of Pixels? Solving TV Reception Issues on the Fylde Coast
Living on the Fylde Coast—from the breezy promenades of Blackpool to the leafy streets of Lytham St Annes—comes with plenty of perks. However, reliable TV reception isn’t always one of them. If you’ve ever sat down to watch your favourite show only to be met with “No Signal” or a screen full of digital “blocks,” you aren’t alone.
The Fylde area presents a unique set of challenges for digital TV signals. Being a coastal region, high winds and salt air are the primary enemies of outdoor hardware. Over time, salt spray can corrode the delicate connections in your aerial or satellite dish, leading to a degraded signal that suddenly cuts out during a storm. Furthermore, the Blackpool area has several “signal shadows” created by tall buildings and coastal topography.
At Fylde Aerials, we don’t just “guess” where the signal is coming from. Our engineers use professional-grade signal strength meters to pinpoint the exact orientation for your aerial. Sometimes, the solution isn’t a new aerial at all; it’s simply replacing a weathered cable or a faulty bracket that has shifted in the wind.
If you are consistently struggling with Freeview or Freesat glitches, it’s time to move beyond the “DIY fix” of wiggling the cable. A professional diagnostic can determine if you need a high-gain aerial, a signal booster, or simply a repair to your existing setup. Don’t let poor reception ruin your evening—get a crystal-clear picture today.
