You do a scan with aerial unplugged to clear the Belmont (Lincolnshire) ones out which you have got now.
Then reconnect aerial and use Manual Tune for each of the Emnley Moor channels, 52, 40, 39, 43, 46, 50 and 49.
It is because EM for BBC is 10k power and Belmont went up to 150k power this week.

Typical. We in Nottinghamshire have been force fed useless Yorkshire news for a lifetime. We don't want to know what happens in Leeds or Hull. The poor Yorkshire folk have to watch our news for two days and they're already griping about it.

Hamish Emley Moor transmitter is in Yorkshire and is Yorkshires main station, I wonder why you are not using the East Midlands transmitters.

Terrestrial Digital transmissions started around about the same time as SKY Digital transmissions in the UK. Why the heck is the terrestrial version of digital TV so ridiculous to set up! With sky you do nothing, as channels are added you get them, if frequencies change, you still do nothing, the change just happens. How can a 90 year old be expected to re-tune!!! Basically, Sky got it right, UK Digital stayed in the dark ages!

Nigel Dixon: Digital terrestrial broadcasting by its very nature of requiring a multitude of separate transmitters to cover the country, will always have problems compared to the whole country receiving a multitude of programmes all from the "same" source.

In other words, its much easier to arrange channel shuffling operations etc when its known that the whole of your viewing audience is responding to the same transmission platform, and likewise to use the expression, are "singing from the same hymn book", something quite impossible to achieve with any other mode of transmission involving anything other than say Long Wave transmissions. (e.g: BBC radio 4 on 198Khz) which covers most of the country, albeit Scotland having two fill in transmitters.

I think Sky got it right too.
All makes of boxes work in the same way and are alike apart from outward appearence.
All use the same Remote Control.
Sky control the box makers to ensure they comply with the transmission specs.
All changes take place with no user involvement.
They get the right area local program to the place box used in.
These things can't be said of Freeview (and Freesat)

David: Sky and Freeview don't work in the same way. Freeview is just the name of the publicity for the DVB-T service. The makers of the Freeview equipment are not associated with this company, or the broadcasters, in any way.

Basically, Freeview works like this:

Yes Brian that is why Sky is far better than Freeview.
