I've also lost Film4 and ITV4 since last week. After several rescans, nothing changed on my Humax F2-FOX T. This evening I found this site and reset to factory defaults, now i have those 2 channels back, but channels 1 and 2 are now BBC Wales. How can i get them back to BBC NW? I'm in South Manchester M20.

Furthermore, i should also say that BBC ONE Wales and BBC TWO Wales report "No or bad signal", and in fact I've also lost BBC THREE, BBC Four, CBBC, CBeebies, BBC News and BBC Parliament - they all now show the same bad signal error. I can't say i'm that impressed with the advice to reset to defaults...

Kevin,Manchester.Does yer digibox have a manual scanning facility.You must have picked up the BBCA multiplex from Moel-Y-Parc mast on frequency 45 instead of BBCA from Winter Hill on frequency 62.To return to yer original set up,manually delete all 21 programmes from the BBCA mux at Moel-Y-Parc and once accomplished manually scan for fr 62 which is BBCA mux from Winter Hill,hopefully the correct multiplex will slot into place.If yer unable to delete this as such,delete all yer channels then manually input all Winter Hill's multiplexes,starting with the MEN multiplex if ya can receive this on fr 57,followed by ArqB on fr 55,SDN on fr 58,D3+4 on fr 59,ArqA on fr 61 and finally of course BBCA on fr 62.This should recify everything.

Film 4 disappeared from Channel 15 this week. First it was 'no video available', then I re-scanend all stations through my set-up menu and 15 disappeared altogether.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks.

Last night I lost sky and many other channels after midnight, but still had BBC channels.

Today all channels were working again until midnight.

Then after midnight I lost all channels
My tv is saying there is no signal

What is happening?

@Robin & FreddieF.
Same thing happened to us. Several channels disappeared Tuesday night and were not found with a rescan. Wednesday I rescanned and found more channels and carriers than usual, but at 00:05 Thursday all digital channels reported "No signal".
I was hoping to find an answer in this forum, but found only more questions.
