Hi

Firstly, thanks for providing this data for free! Second, is it possible to get a better map to understand coverage gaps please?

Thanks, M.

Hello, thanks for the question/feature request.

I understand the coverage map is lacking and we are looking to eventually improve it to be both interactive and a live representation of our coverage. However, currently this is a low priority for us and we do not for see us doing this in the next 12 months.

The best method of determining coverage for your desired area is to create a connection to our service and seeing if you receive data for the area for a period of time. I understand this is laborious and undesirable, however it the only accurate method we provide at this time.

I am marking this as a feature request and leaving it open to track work on this in the future.

Apologies for the very late reply.
