HD Mux is still poor for me; signal strength is ok but quality is being reported as 10%. Oddly enough almost no picture breakup.
When doing auto scan Mux 2 also reports itself as being 10% quality, yet when I tune to one of its channels and bring up the signal meter, it's up to 90%!

Everything was fine on the HD mux, even during it's reported weak signal period today. However, since around 6pm when I returned home after a quick trip out, it's unmatchable. Mass of picture break up, squeeking of the audio and signal strength fluctuation from around 60% right down to 0%.
Roll on switchover :)

That should be unwatchable, not unmatchable. Apologies, spell checker fail.

The HD multiplex signal is very variable today. It is the worst it as been since BBC1 HD started. Mind you, the signal strength and quality as always been low. All the other multiplexes SD very good.Roll on 21st September.

I'm still having reception problems even though there's no mention of transmitter issues today. HD is still unwatchable (automatic scan doesn't pick them up at all, manual scan reckons they're on less than 40%). And I'm LOS with Emley Moor!
