hello all,
I am near Cambridge at post code CB25 0HB. Everything was working fine yesterday but today I have had no freeview signal at all. I have had a quick visual scan of my equipment and have reset my TV without success. I think my transmitter is sandy heath but there are no reported problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks
