I have a powerful multi element loft aerial with a masthead amplifier pointed at Hannington which gives me BBC1, BBC2, ITV1 & Channel 4 analogue. Perfectly well except for a bit of herringbone interference on BBC2. I have several dozen watchable digital channels but BBC1 & BBC 2 are unwatchable at present due to pixelations and break up. This is the same for a second television with a less powerful unamplified external aerial. Can I expect an effective BBC 1 & 2 digital signal after switchover please?

J. R Hill: Going by the post code reception predictor (trade view) the only channels shown as being presently possible to receive is the BBC (Mux Ch50) and SDN /ITV3 etc (Mux Ch40), the latter being in the category of variable.
This changes on 22nd Feb next year when all PSB muxes increase power, with the commercial muxes doing likewise between 4/18th of April when all six multiples are then indicated as good.
I will say that Oxfords PSB muxes are shown as being presently possible to receive, these being on Mux Ch53 / Ch60 / Ch57 (HD) the station being located @ 41mls / 330 degrees, but whether or not you would actually pick it up is another matter altogether.

Can anone help, please ? I am at my wit's end with poor freeview reception on ITV 1, 2 &3, Channels 4&5, and QVC, all transmitted from Hannington. BBC and most other programmes are perfect, but those ITV listed
programmes suffer from spells of picture break-up or no signal. The high-gain aerial was newly fitted (by a professional)about six months ago to counteract similar problems - after installation all seemed fine, but over the Christmas period the problems have returned, and are even worse. I have re-tuned on countless occasions, and replaced the Scart lead from Humax PVR 9200T - the interference is present on both Panasonic TH-42PX7B operating "stand-alone" or through the Humax. Oh, by the way, on those affected channels which have an analogue signal, that signal is not degraded. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.Our location is SO24 0AL.

Hiya. I too am having problems getting ITV 1,2 & 3, Channels 4 and 5. It was working OK yesterday but has come up with a weak or no signal eror. I have retuned on several TVs and they a drastically reduced number of available channels - ie 32 instead of 106 listed previously. I'm in SP11 area

Paul, where you live is a notoriously bad area for signal. Your aerial installer should have warned you that regardless of what aerial he fitted there was the distinct possibility that reception would still break up.
Hopefully, after the digital switchover, your reception will improve.

Thank you, TV Tuner for your response to my post - I sincerely hope the digital switchover will improve the reception here!
Could I ask you two other questions? First there is an industrial site at Weild, with two large aerial arrays, on a direct line from my house to Hannington - could that be a source of interference. Second, do you think Rowridge might be a better bet, instead of Hannington? - some local properties appear to receive from there.
Kind regards,
Paul.

Hello
regarding Paul Rundles post on Tuesday 27 December
I live in Alton GU34 and have received excellent coverage from Hannington until just before New Year when I lost (No Signal) ITV 1, Ch 4 and CH 5
Something has changed as these signals were perfect before. Hopefully changeover next month will cure, but does anybody know what has changed on this transmitter
