'Sydney' transmitter means one of three close-by transmitters located in the north part of Sydney - Willoughby, Artamon and Gore Hill. The TV usually finds stations automaticly and you do not need to know channel frequency and numbers. But faulty antenna may push TV auto tuning skip some stations. The table above helps manual tuning and antenna troubleshooting.
As you may see from the table, channels you press on the remote control and advertised on TV guides are not the same as TV frequencies channels found in manual TV tuning settings.
Generally, antennas north of Bilgolah Plateau and Avalon point to Bouddi and installed vertically. All other TV transmitters at Sydney Northern Beaches are horizontally polarized. Yet some north-facing hill slopes as far as Manly Vale may also require antenna facing north. The best type of antenna, UHF or VHF, type of the amplifier, etc., and channels determined experimentally at your specific location with the precision of a meter and few degrees.
High Definition resolution channels numbers end with 0 except 10. HD Ten is on number 13. For example, to view ABC in 1080i high definition press number 20 on a TV remote control, not 2, 2 is 576i standard-definition. Old digital TVs, recorders and setup boxes may have HD channels missing or show a blank screen with the sound only.
Apart from Netflix and Foxtel channel 444, there is no free to air 4K broadcast in Australia yet. 4K TVs artificially upscale fine 4K details from an HD source.
