You are not being fussy. I live well over 30 miles south of Sutton
Coldfield, but get perfect and break-up free reception on all mux's
using an Antiference aerial, low gain amplifier and PF100 cable
everywhere. What does the "new" postcode checker say about your
reception http://www.digitaluk.co.uk/?

It assumes I want Wenvoe, but I select Mendip instead. It then says
that I should get "Overall good reception" at all phases of
switchover.

presumably good now from Mendip?

I'm not sure what you're asking. I've always used Mendip rather than
Wenvoe because I wanted BBC2 rather than BBC2W and also because Wenvoe
itself is blocked by that hillside monstrosity the Celtic Manor Hotel
which will be familiar to all drivers who venture over the Severn on the
M4.

Actually Wenvoe isn't too good at the hotel either. I once 20+ years ago
had to go and look for BBC Wales signals since the BBC Welsh Governors were
due to have a meeting there. From the photos the building seems much
larger now than it was then, so perhaps they can now get decent signal
with a rooftop aerial.
