L Howarth: You are likely to be receiving signals from Preselli. Reception on C49 is shown as being variable for your postcode. Use a good quality group B aerial carefully positioned and aligned for best signal pick-up. Also check that no equipment has the RF modulator set around C49.The Digital UK postcode checker shows reception on C42 and C45 deteriorating slightly to become variable in April 2011.

We are experiencing extensive pixilation on all channels but particularly ITV ,C4 and C5. It occurs at different times but predominantly from 9pm.
Last time this occured to the same extent there was major work being undertaken to build a Gas Power Station,however, to our knowledge this is not the case at present.
We do not want to go to Sky we just want to enjoy a good picture with Freeview.
I have checked the cables, re-tuned as you have suggested etc.
Please can you help.

Martin Melbourne: We need a full postcode so that we can see where you are in relation to the transmitter and your predicted coverage etc. Retuning will never fix a problem with poor signal as all you are doing is deleting your correctly tuned channels and searching for them again.

Martin Melbourne:
As per the post before yours, the BBC reported a fault. There's the possibility the fault has not yet been fully fixed.
As you've retuned it'll probably have cleared the correct tuning when there's no signal, so you'll have to repeat the retune, maybe several times as you won't know when the signals will be back.
It is never advised to retune if you have no signal or badly pixellated pictures.
