Since monday 16th may I have been unable to listen to the hits radio on 711. Until that time I had no problems but the page just says . How can this be when all the BBC stations work perfectly fine. I am also unable to get other independent stations such as Kerrang.

This is very frustrating. Could it be anything to do with the ?

Caz: The BBC are carried on MuxB (MuxBBCA after ). However Kerrang and The Hits are both carried on MuxD/MuxArqB. You are missing MuxD on - so need to check for from a VCR or box with the RF modulator set around /49. Also check that cables and connectors are in good order.This Mux has a lower than the rest to minimise interference to Mux1 from in overlap areas. As a result it is likely to be the first one to be affected by poor connections or trees in leaf in the path. If you are within range of Waltham it is also possible that the East Midlands Mux1 signal is blocking your MuxD .
