Jane Bruce: north of Henley, no ITV channels since some time last night I RECORDED DOWNTON ABBEY AND GOT NOTHING!!! re-tuned 10 mins ago and lost all channels. had to clear the lot by pulling out the aerial and doing a setup, then putting aerial back in and doing another setup. everything looks ok now. why is it so unreliable? I am absolutely SICK of my TV service disappearing without notice, having a signal so bad I get recordings with pixellation and half way through packing up with a Bad Signal or No Service message

Just resetting and tuning.
Had terrible problems on and off all day.
Thank goodness I've found this site.
Disconnected TV, power and Ariel.
Retuned with Ariel out.
Now retuned with Ariel in.
BUT
How do I know if I am on Wrekin or Sut Col transmitter?
Also there is a big Ariel mast on the Severn Trent Depot. It has been there for a few years.
Never had a problem on the old system.
Since digital, frequent fragmenting of picture, frequent no signal on several channels.
Someone sent me one plug in device. I have additional freeview boxes or TV's with Freeview.
Where do I put this device, does it cover all units and if not how do I get more free ones, for some new interruption protection caused by others.

It is clear that there is a severe problem with reception from this transmitter despite this site and the linked site claiming there is no problem.
Is there any way to report this transmitter fault or complain to the operator?
