phil short:
Depending on your precise location in your postcode (it's terrain related), you might even be able to receive 4 transmitters, none of which have reported any faults or been listed for Planned Engineering.
However, the most reliable reception in normal circumstances is going to be Cwmafon for which your aerial should be pointing NE with the rods vertical. The 2nd most likely reliable reception could be Kilvey Hill.
So your problem is most likely to be weather related and as I said in my previous reply the "tropospheric ducting" can be variable and intermittent. That means some/all of your signals could be affected one minute and not the next!
I would check in your receiver's tuning section that you are actually tuned to the correct UHF channels for Cwmafon. The are, in the order PSBs1-3, C32, C34, & C35.
If in fact your aerial points at Kilvey Hill, those 3 are C21, C24, C27 & also you may get COMs4-6 on C25, C22, & C28 but those last 3 COM channels may get interference from one of those other transmitters you MIGHT get.
For which TV channels/programmes are on which multiplex see Channel listings | Freeview
If you have become tuned to the incorrect channels, I would try a retune as follows - unplug the aerial and do an automatic retune which should clear all previous tuning. Plug the aerial back in and repeat the retune, doing a manual tune for the correct UHF channels if you still get other ones.

If you meant HD versions of Ch4+1, Film 4 & 4seven they don't exist any more as broadcast channels (Ch4's choice).
If you are still at the same postcode, then getting the COM7 HD multiplex from Winter Hill could be iffy, things have changed as part of the 700MHz Clearance and COM7 is a Single Frequency Network (SFN) on C55. Predicted reception from Winter Hill for COM7 at your location is "poor" (unreliable rather than not possible), and Winter Hill is the Granada region, so different news (not Central).
COM7 is much better from Moel-y-Parc but then you have the Welsh news and other variations which you may not want with the other multiplexes.
You'll certainly need a wideband aerial and a high gain one at that for Winter Hill, it's 102km away from you. Your existing aerial is unlikely to be any good because if it were a high enough gain, you'd probably have all sorts of reception problems from the Wrekin due to signal overload!
Unless you are doing things with aerials yourself, as COM7 is a temporary multiplex - licenced until June 2022 - but it may have to close before then if it's frequency is needed for Mobile SDL when the 700MHz band is auctioned, I wouldn't be spending any significant sums of money, especially taking other factors into account.
If you are having a go yourself and want some further help, post back.
Oh, just to add, if you were talking about problems receiving SD versions of Ch4+1, Film 4 & 4seven - Ch4+1 is on the D3&4 mux and the other two on ArqA which you should have no trouble with.

You shouldn't have any reception problems with any of the main multiplexes or the local Liverpool multiplex from the Winter Hill main transmitter at your location, it should be very good.
QVC on 111 is QVC HD and it's SD channel is the one on LCN16. These are on different multiplexes.
For which channels are on which multiplex see Channel listings | Freeview
Are you missing any other channels?
It sounds as though your set's memory might need clearing, so do so as follows -
Unplug the aerial and carry out an automatic retune, this should clear all previous tuning as nothing should be found. Switch the TV off for at least 10 minutes.
Plug the aerial back in and switch on, and carry out an automatic retune. Hopefully all the channels will be correctly restored.

Hi Chris, you may remember me from a couple of months ago!!
Not sure if anybody else within the Winter Hill transmission area has the dreadful signal quality that I have on channel 27 on frequency 522000mhz. I live around the corner from this transmitter and since the changes earlier this week all of the channels on this mux are unwatchable. Exactly the same thing happened in June when other changes were made. I think you contacted somebody to tell them you were watching a stream of TV Warehouse and the picture was breaking up. I seem to remember you saying they found it difficult to believe!! Miraculously the picture quality improved within an hour of this.

Hi Steve, indeed I remember, the conversations are on p128, just been trying to see a live steam and not having any luck.
But let's do some other checks to be sure nothing else is amiss.
What signal strength and quality are you getting for the GI mux?
Are you getting the Local Manchester mux on UHF C24? Again, what signal strength and quality?
Should have That's TV Manchester at LCN7 in the EPG.

Hi Chris,
On mux 24 my readings are signal strength 100 & signal quality 93 where as on mux 27 I have signal strength 100 & signal quality 30. In other words I have perfect reception on mux 24 and a pixelated picture on all mux 27 channels.
