TV reception in Toowoomba
Free-to-air TV in Toowoomba comes from the Toowoomba local translator at Toowoomba, 2.2 km to the NE (bearing 48°). It broadcasts on UHF (channels 28–51) channels 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, horizontally polarised.
A standard-gain UHF antenna pointed NE and mounted horizontally (elements flat) gives reliable reception for most homes.
Pockets of Toowoomba shadowed from Toowoomba can use the Toowoomba East translator (4.3 km SE, UHF channels 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, H polarisation), which needs a UHF antenna pointed the other way, a common cause of "wrong antenna" reception faults after DIY installs.
The regional main transmitter (Darling Downs, 81.5 km NNW) is generally not usable here without a high-gain installation; the translator is the intended service.
