Hello Keith and Mike, many thanks for all your help & advise. Retuned this morning and got 31 additional dtv channels (belmont & Bilsdale now highlighted in red!!) i'll probably get more channels as the signals get stronger.
Thanks again.
Jamie.

Niven: Yes, it says
After switchover frequency notes ():
Arqiva B at Sheffield is expect to temporarily operate on channel 63 for a short period after switchover.
ArqB starts on C63 at DSO 2 (24 August 2011) at full power (1kW) and moves to final channel (this has C49 - prev C39) on 27 September (a Tuesday)
above.

Jamie: Red indicates that a transmitter has engineering information associated with it.

Since 10th August ish, we can't get BBC1 or BBC2, presumably because of the BBCA mux going to channel 27, whatever that means. Re-tuned Samsung digi-box many times, it has updated itself with new software and I've tried resets and cleaning the co-ax connections. Can't get BBC2 on analogue either. Had a new aerial that the man said was specifically for this transmitter last year. Other TVs in the house get all channels fine (presumably getting Emley Moor).
Help.

Joe: The Sheffield transmitter at Crosspool is in the middle of its switchover, so you won't get BBC2 analogue because it has already been switched off. The rest of the analogue signals will disappear on Wednesday 24th Aug.
BBC1 & BBC2 are now on UHF channel 27, and retuning should find them - but if you haven't "cleared out" the previous UHF channel information for these, then your digibox will store them with programme numbers up in the 800s. Have a look there to see if that's what's happened.
