TV reception in Seven Mile Beach
Free-to-air TV in Seven Mile Beach comes from the Hobart main transmitter at Mt Wellington, 22.8 km to the WSW (bearing 258°). It broadcasts on VHF Band III (channels 6–12) channels 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, horizontally polarised.
A medium-gain VHF antenna pointed WSW and mounted horizontally (elements flat) gives reliable reception for most homes.
Pockets of Seven Mile Beach shadowed from Hobart can use the Acton Road translator (2.3 km SSW, UHF channels 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, H polarisation), which needs a UHF antenna pointed the other way, a common cause of "wrong antenna" reception faults after DIY installs.
