Freeview HD channels had been working fine for months, until yesterday (Jan 2). Now all I get is a 'Service is not running or scrambled' message. I've tried re-tuning but no success. I live in Highbury, North London. Anyone got any ideas about what is going on? Thanks.

Hi
I am in Bethnal Green (London) and have a shared (I think) roof mounted aerial, my TV has a built in HD Freeview receiver but no matter how many times I scan I cannot receive and HD channels, all other channels are fine.
Are HD channels on a different freq, is it possible that the roof aerial is rubbish and incapable for receiving HD signal?

hi, i am in Camberley, surrey i have my aerial pointing at crystal palace as every other house in my round has the same.
i have a 52 element digital aerial but i can only get the stronger signal channels ie, bbc 1, 2 ,3,4 pick tv, yesterday ect.
I can not receive channel 5 or itv as the signal is to weak my bbc signal is only 56% according to my freeview + box.
My question is will the signal boost in April or will i have to have some sort of booster?? what date will the boost happen if any?.
