Similar problem here in Harefield near Uxbridge. Bye, bye BBC. We get Crystal Palace and there were changes due Dec 10. Have they over-run or are they run by the same mob as NATS?!

Been down for more than two hours.

96 channels are back but nothing on the Sky News mux. It is a bit foggy but not as bad as last night.

BTW. Is anyone else having a web issue using the site running latest Firefox on Android Jellybean? I am now using default Android browser as FF gets to the Home page but no further. If others are having same issue pls advise and I will report it.

Thanks

Hello. Something weird happened 90 mins ago. I live in a strong Crystal Palace reception area in NW London. At approx 11.10 am today my TV suddenly popped up a message "No signal, aerial failure...". Black screen. Tried another TV, same thing. Fearing the worst I went up into the loft looking for blown booster, gnawed cable, etc. and then my wife said: "They are back!". Sure enough, all was well again. I looked on this site and it has listed at 11.09 am several faults and maintenance works at various transmitters, but not CP.

I am currently looking at TV on an old box which is working fine. My local barometric pressure is not unduly high (30.3) and steady. Do you reckon it was their Friday cleaner pulling the master plug or can you offer any other thoughts?

Thanks
