Reception in Meath

There is no Saorview site in Meath. Clermont Carn in Louth is named as covering the county along with Louth and north Dublin; the south of Meath may look to Three Rock and the west to Cairn Hill. Clermont Carn is vertical and the other two horizontal, so how the aerial is mounted depends on which site 2RN's coverage map (official source, opens in a new tab) recommends for your address. No blind spots are on record.

Main Saorview transmitters
  • Clermont Carn (channels 42 and 45, aerial group B, vertical)
  • Three Rock (channels 30 and 33, aerial group A, horizontal)
  • Cairn Hill (channels 47 and 44, aerial group B, horizontal)
Relays

None listed for Meath.

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 Navan use?
Clermont Carn in Louth is the main site named as covering Meath, but no source on record confirms it for Navan specifically. Run coverage.2rn.ie for your address; an installer will measure it on the roof.
Is there a relay in Meath?
No. 2RN lists none in the county. The nearest is the Drogheda relay on channels 22 and 25, vertical.
What do local installers charge?
One Meath installer publishes attic aerial installs from €100 and chimney or gable installs from €129 (Sept 2026), with an amplifier at €39.99 extra and Saorview boxes from €39 to €89.
How much does an aerial install cost in Meath?
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 Clermont Carn (channels 42 and 45, aerial group B, vertical) 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 Meath. We save your request, tell you so straight away, and get back to you when we have someone vetted who can quote.
