Reception in Limerick

Limerick city and its environs point at Woodcock Hill, a 10 kW site just across the county line in Clare that exists for the city and not much else. Beyond it the county is split between Mullaghanish to the south-west and Maghera to the north, two different aerial groups, so the address matters: check yours on 2RN's coverage map (official source, opens in a new tab). No named Limerick blind spots are on record.

Main Saorview transmitters
  • Woodcock Hill (channels 47 and 44, aerial group B, horizontal)
  • Mullaghanish (channels 21 and 24, aerial group A, horizontal)
  • Maghera (channels 48 and 46, aerial group B, horizontal)
Relays

None listed for Limerick.

Transmitter details checked 19 September 2026 against 2RN and saorview.ie. Coverage is indicative; an installer measures the signal on the roof.

Questions people actually ask

Which transmitter does Limerick city use?
Woodcock Hill, channels 47 and 44, a 10 kW main site built for Limerick city and environs.
Is there a relay in Limerick?
None inside the county. The nearest are Kilduff in Tipperary (channels 31 and 37, horizontal, 25 kW, fed from Cairn Hill) and Mitchelstown in Cork (channels 40 and 43, vertical).
How much does an aerial install cost in Limerick?
Installers publish aerial installs from about €130 to €290 depending on rooms and roof, dish installs from about €165, and combo Saorview-and-satellite systems in the €250 to €340 range. Those are Dublin and Wicklow prices; rural jobs with long cable runs or a mast can cost more. Get three quotes rather than guessing.
Do I need an aerial and a dish?
An aerial gets you Saorview: RTÉ, Virgin Media, TG4 and the rest. A dish pointed at Astra 28.2°E gets you the free UK channels: BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5. Most households that want both get a combo box or a TV with both tuners, fed by one aerial and one dish.
Will the installer know which transmitter to point at?
Yes. A local installer will know whether your address is best served by Woodcock Hill (channels 47 and 44, aerial group B, horizontal) or a relay, and will check the signal on the roof before fixing anything. The Saorview coverage checker at saorview.ie gives an indication for your Eircode too.
What happens after I send the form?
We're still signing up installers in Limerick. We save your request, tell you so straight away, and get back to you when we have someone vetted who can quote.
