Is it just me or have we lost the HD mux again on the Nottingham transmitter? Was fine this morning but nothing this evening. I would blame poor reception and the current weather, but the signal is normally good. Receiving on a Sony SVR-HDT500.

clarke: Until switchover, you will only get the Freeview HD service if your aerial is pointing at the Emley Moor transmitter.

Has the Nottingham signal been uprated from 40 to 400 yet? The map still shows green outside its immediate vicinity.
I'm Alfreton way and sick of watching West Midlands news! Should I be able to get a decent East Midlands signal from Nottingham?

Gary: Yes it has, but no you can't get a signal from it. Your best transmitter choice is Sutton Coldfield, and only on 21st September 2011 will you get the full power signal.
