This can result in an overlap in signals and different regional channels (eg BBC England instead of BBC Scotland, or BBC East Midlands instead of BBC Anglia) in your TV Guide.
In some locations you may have a choice of more than one service because your TV can pick up signals from more than one transmitter.
