Kenneth Muir: I'm afraid Kenmore is a 'Freeview Lite' transmitter, which only transmits the three public service multiplexes. The commercial multiplex operators were offered the opportunity to broadcast from additional sites after switchover - they turned it down. They claim it is too expensive.

alan : There is engineering work showing from 7th February so there could be further work taking place which hasn't shown up yet, although it is rare for planned engineering work take place during the evening or over the weekend. It would be worth checking for any loose or damaged cables or connections behind your TV, but do not attempt to retune as this will just delete your correctly tuned channels before searching for them again.
