Nick: In order to answer the question, knowledge of which transmitter you are using is required as there may be a number of possibilities at your location.
Top of the list is Bilsdale which is south south east. If you haven't had your Group A aerial replaced, this may cause difficulty with reception of the COMs after switchover. See here for an explanation:

Hi
I cannot get Dave, E4+1, BBC3 or BBC4. In addition, BBC 1 & BBC2 can be jumpy and with a wibbly picture. Can anyone help? I am very new to this and can't work out how to resolve the issue - I am supposed to have full coverage incl the above according to the signal check, with signal coming from Storeton, Winter Hill and Moel-Y-Parc.
Thanks!

Anna: You are predicted to have good reception but only from Winterhill, the problem being that if you carry out an auto-tune your TV or box is liable to pick up and store weaker signals from either of these other two stations as these all use lower channel numbers.
The best policy is to scrub what you have already stored by either carrying out a factory reset (also called "default setting") on your TV / box or by carrying out another auto tune with the aerial removed, once completed reconnect the aerial and go in to the tuning menu / manual tune (if set allows) and enter the following channels one at a time scanning each and storing the results before entering the next channel on the list.
Winter Hill: 62(BBC) - 59(ITV) - 54(HD if used) - 58(ITV3 etc) - 61(ArqA) - 55(ArqB)
If by any chance your TV/box does not allow manual tuning then during an auto-tune can you observe the channel numbers rising in the progress bar whilst scanning is taking place?

m coles: Unfortunately the Wattsville transmitter only carries Public Service (PSB) channels as the Commercial broadcasters don't wish to pay to transmit from it and over 1,000 other similar small transmitting sites. This is because they don't consider that the expense is justified by the return, them operating purely for profit.
