Which transmitter Dorking points at
Dorking sits squarely on the south side of the North Downs ridge, which puts most of RH4 and RH5 in genuine Crystal Palace signal shadow. Hannington (south-west on the Hampshire downs) and Guildford (west) are the reliable Freeview transmitters for most Dorking rooftops, with the Reigate relay an option for properties on the eastern side towards Brockham. The Mole Gap around Westhumble and Mickleham creates real line-of-sight complications — we meter every job, and we keep Group A, Group K and log-periodic aerials on the van so we can fit the right antenna once the test is done.
