Comment: Works appear still to be going on. My analogue Hannington's are dismal compared to normal and I have checked the signals on a Fracarro Sigma with a 28dB variable gain amp AND a log periodic with a 12dB variable gain amp. Similar results: I think reduced power working is in operation. Stay tuned...

Briantist: Yes, first thing done. Its pretty obvious that there are problems when CCIR Grade 5.0 PAL goes to Grade 2.0 overnight at DSO. I note that others to the east are not receiving BBCA E45. Will keep you posted. I have multiple systems and multiple antenna systems. More later.

mrdtv: People do seem to be having problems, but nothing is showing up on the official channels.
However, generally speaking some people do have problems with the increased signal levels at DSO1.

SO249HS back to 79 channels after full unplug and reset. No BBC. Will do as you suggest and try again this evening.

tony: There have been no changes to the analogue services, other than removing BBC TWO analogue, you should be seeing no difference at all.

Emma: OK, thanks for the information. Please let me know how you get on later.

Tony:
You are on the money. Here in NW London I have had super Hannington analogue for years, the two E41 and E44 muxes fairly reliably and the 'notched' PSB muxes only in lifts. Today the same story: dismal analogue, no BBCA mux and no low power muxes.
I wonder if this is going to be the first big DSO cockup...

mrdtv: Technically speaking, the fire at Oxford was the first big DSO cockup Oxford transmitter fire | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice - given that the Prime Minister uses the transmitter.
