Default DAB reception

grrrrrrrrrrr bloody grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. After finding out that our main
transmitter (Caradon Hill in sunny Cornwall) has now started broadcasting
DAB, as off mid december, I went out a got a DAB radio today. I did have
some nagging doubts in the back of my mind that I still wouldn't be able to
get a signal in my village (polperro), and surprise, surprise I can't! The
reason, the village is on the coast in a vally, like a large number of
places in Cornwall, we get our TV via a relay on top of the hill over
looking the village, again as a large number of places in Cornwall do, so NO
DAB and NO Freeview!

It's really getting on my tits now I'm fed up of seeing the adverts, paying
the theifing licnese fee and getting sod all. I had to get sky installed
because we can't get freeview, and that was a close thing, a large number of
houses in the village can't get sky because of the topology of the village,
grrrrrrrrrrrr

Has anyone got any ideas as to when local relays are going to be upgraded to
start providing services? I have a feeling our relay site shared between NTL
(and they're skint!) and the BBC
