I am missing a transmission multiplex?

If you are missing a single multiplex on a single frequency, it may be that you have a local source of interference - such as a VCR, games console or Sky Digibox - causing the problem rather than a poor signal from the aerial.
Try eliminating any such devices, and if one does appear to cause the problem, change it's RF output channel to a new value.

Hi Chris
I have tried a signal booster and although it has boosted the signal (both strength and quality are now hovering at between 75-80%), it is still going off at around 8pm with total loss of signal on the previously mentioned channels. Other than repoint aerial, I don't know what else to try.

Darren Brown:
Have you got the filter plugged into the input of the booster?
Please post the current Signal Strength and Quality figures for each multiplex.
Then turn the gain down slightly, check and post the new Strength and Quality figures for each multiplex.

Hi Chris
Yes I have got the filter attached.
UHF 29 - Signal Quality = 90%, Strength = 70%
UHF 31 - Signal Quality = 95%, Strength = 70%
UHF 37 - Signal Quality = 90%, Strength = 75%
UHF 41 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 90%
UHF 44 - Signal Quality = 95%, Strength = 90%
UHF 47 - Signal Quality = 90%, Strength =80%
After I turned the booster down:
UHF 29 - Signal Quality = 90%, Strength = 85%
UHF 31 - Signal Quality = 95%, Strength = 75%
UHF 37 - Signal Quality = 95%, Strength = 80%
UHF 41 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 95%
UHF 44 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 95%
UHF 47 - Signal Quality = 90%, Strength =85%
Of course, the acid test will be tonight to see if 5USA etc goes off completely.
Thanks
Darren
