Yesterday, 17 January 2011,there was not TV signal all day. In the afternoon BBC1 and BBC2 received a signal, but no other channel untilthe evening.
Tuesday 18 January 2011m the signal went off on ALL CHANNELS around 09.30 and has remained off all day on all channels. We have 3 different TV's with three different aerials and none of them has a signal. What is going on? The website states that the Chinley transmitter "has no reported problems with transmission".. Wel;l, it does now!! Please find out what is going on, it is extremely frustrating.
