I live near Burton on Trent. Anyone suggest how to get Ch12 Yesterday. All other channels fine. Can find all I need via multiplex 61 (East Mids) and then have tried all other multiplexes but can't find Yesterday channel. My aerial points to Waltham

tracyt: If you are using Midhurst for reception, then MuxC/ ArqA (Ch64) which Challenge uses is forecast as being poor until March 2012.
I am not quite clear though about you stating programmes will return at 6am, as you have to be picking the channel up to see that in the first place, so are you meaning that although you have seen that on the screen it doesnt come on during daytime?
You could maybe also carry out a signal strength / quality check on Mux Ch64, this done via the tuning menu, giving an update on what you find considering the predictors negative forecast on your reception of it.

Tony: Yesterday (EPG12) is on ArqB/Com6 Mux Ch57 from Waltham, this the same Mux as ITV4 / Ideal World etc, etc are on.

Hi after retuning when told by my Bt vision box i have had continual problems with pixalateing. I have had all of my house aireals replace with state of the art replacements. It seems to me that all of the trnasmitters are not up to full strength yet as i can pick up all concerning the DE21 area.When will digital be full up and running ? Hopefully this will be a simple job to do without the whole country retuning and perchasing more updated kit ?

tracyt, I understand what you mean.
I receive Challenge from Waltham (on RF channel 56) and can view all of the scheduled programmes that are broadcast.
I also receive Challenge from Belmont (RF channel 30) but there are NO programmes only a continuous caption (no sound) with the Challenge logo and the words 'Back tomorrow. Programmes start at 6.30am.' (plus additional advice to rescan your STB or iDTV if the Challenge tv channel has recently been lost).
Signal quality and strength from both Belmont and Waltham are 10/10 and reception is perfect.
Challenge from Waltham is automatically stored on my iDTV as channel 46 and from Belmont as channel 795, which I find strange because I would have expected Belmont to be on 46 (having been scanned first at the time of the last retune).
The question therefore arises: Why is the caption chart being transmitted from some transmitters, and the scheduled programmes from others?
Can anyone throw some light on this please?

It's okay everyone, yes I do of course realise that Challenge from Belmont is now broadcast on RF channel 53 and not 30 as before!
