I checked it again this morning and all Freeview HD channels were OK. Signal strength = 10, signal quality = 6.
Most non-HD Freeview channels are 10/10.
I'll keep an eye on things in the meantime.

Peter Sorrell: You would expect that, given the power output levels.

Just asking to see if anybody has any advice on solutions to a problem I have got with Interference on Digital TV channels.

I recently upgraded to Sky HD and bought a Sony BVDE370 Cinema System to gain the full benefit of the HD box. This works fine in the lounge but taking the second co-axial output through a booster box, 40 metres of coaxial cable to a TV in the dining room, I get signal problems on some digital channels.

I live in the Emily Moor region and get problems with ITV & ITV3, which I believe are on two different Multiplex Channels 40 & 43, go to no signal when I turn on the Surround Sound system. (BBC 1 etc which are on channel 51 are not affected noticably).

I have replaced the cheap fly leads with shielded cables which seemed to solve the problem but it reoccurred a couple of days later.

Moving the large bass speaker does not appear to make any difference.

Any ideas what to try next ?

Thanks
Jason

Hi Briantist

Moved rf out to channel 64, re tuned tv ok to find signal quite easily. Still got the same problem when I turn on the Sony System.

Digital Signal Strength for ITV drops from about 6 or 7 straight down to 0 as soon I turn on the unit.
Signal Strength for BBC1 is normally 9 or 10.

I have no ITV channels. Re tuning the Tv leaves a lot of channels out.How long is the work going on for and when am I likely to get the channels back? Thanks Neil

jason shaw, are your aerial cables and speaker/power cables entangled/running along side each other?

No not at all, maybe the signal is too weak to pull the channels in at the moment. The only reason I re-tuned was because of break up on Sunday evening only to lose them completely.

Neil Connelly: The work is listed on a week-by-week basis. However, I would also have a look at Single frequency interference | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

I went on holiday from YO7 3AR at the beginning of December and all channels were perfect including HD. I have just come back to rubbish digital reception. I notice that you state that digital transmission from Emley Moor is "Possibly weak signal"
For how much longer is this state of affairs to continue?
