There is a no signal message, no way to initiate set up programme
has been down for about 40 mins
as I type has begun set up
very strange, noticed earlier today that the picture began to disintergrate - especially on all BBc channels, have had this often,then screen goes blue...and often takes time to be able to use the set up sytem.

Mary Tudor: There is engineering work today, which means that the transmitter is off-air. There may be other engineering shut-downs during the week.
The Nailsworth transmitter relays the signal from Stroud, which relays the signal from Mendip. Engineering work is also shown at Stroud, which may explain the shut-down at Nailsworth. No work is shown at Mendip.
You can keep track of engineering works by checking
Digital UK - Planned Engineering Works .

When will Nailsworth get full Freeview not just the Lite version. Can anyone tell me?

Our TV was working until suddenly (around 1430) today the program stopped and a "No signal" error message appeared.
It is now 1845 andstill no signal. Our neighbour (Mr Cox Radnor Cottage GL6 0AP) has similar problems.
Is this a transmitter problem?

The transmitter seems to have been down for both radio and TV since at least 17.30 today. My 02 mobile phone linked to the same transmitter is also inoperative. A neighbour confirms the same problems.

GL6 0JY. 16 September 2023.
I first noticed I had no FM radio signal at 13.00 today. I then checked TV and found that also was lacking.
It is now 16.30, and I still have no signal.

Ian Gregorig: BBC Reception [bbc.co.uk/reception] says the Radio 1-4 FM transmitter went off-air at 12:16 and the TV transmitter off-air at 12:17, both "due to a fault". I've just checked the National Grid Electricity Distribution (formerly Western Power Distribution) website and no power cut is recorded for the postcode of the transmitter. Sometimes a transmitter goes off air and the local electricity distribution network operator reports a power outage, meaning this is probably what has caused the transmitter to shut down.
