BRISBANE TV RECEPTION - BLACK SPOTS, GOOD AND BAD TV RECEPTION AREAS
Please note: Almost all suburbs have 'good' & 'bad' TV reception spots
Brisbane is a large country town. If we made Brisbane up of extended suburbs going as far south as Ormeau, East to Pinkemba or Wynnum, North to Caboolture and West to Thagoona, past Ipswich. We're talking a fair variety of surroundings and varying terrain.
Brisbane is generally a very hilly, mountainous Capital city in comparison to Australia's other capitals. This mountainous terrain effects TV Reception directly as one of the major properties of receiving good quality, strong Tv Reception signals is; what is called 'line of sight'.
There are plenty of suburbs that have direct line of sight and plenty of suburbs that are zoned 'black spot' in Brisbane. Black spot zones are typically where the cost to install a very, very high TV Antenna for the quality of signal possible is more than the cost of installing Vast/Satellite services. 25 foot and higher is getting on the high side when it comes to High antennas.

Brisbane has one Transmitter site - Mt Cootha. A mix of VHF and UHF signals. Going very far South or very far North may receive the UHF signals from Gold or Sunshine Coasts. Going very far into the West of Brisbane and you may receive the UHF signals from Toowoomba or Bunya Mountains. Over 95% of Brisbane residents tune into the Mt Cootha signals so categories are given in respect to this transmitter site.
We could break up all 200ish Brisbane suburbs into Tv Reception grades/categories being:
- Direct line of sight - Strong signals no boosters required for under 4-8 tv points (generalisation only)
- Medium line of sight - Average signals, Booster maybe required 3 points or more
- Poor Signal Zone - High Gain Antenna needed, Extra height and Amplification absolutely required.
- Black Zone - in excess of $1500 to obtain reliable signal levels - Pay Tv or satellite Tv more viable option
