It encompasses all UK transmitters, including Northern Ireland, Shetlands, the Channel Islands, and Republic of Ireland transmitters (Saorview). Please note that a few Saorview repeaters may be excluded due to insufficient information.

Freeview Aim enables you to visualize the locations of transmission towers relative to your position. This feature is valuable for adjusting your antenna for optimal local reception or aiming towards distant towers for long-distance broadcasting.
