BlaenPlwyf (Ceredigion, Wales) Full Freeview transmitter
Thursday 21 March 2013 8:42PM
Aberystwyth

Since 1pm today 21 March 2013 have lost most of Blaenplwyf's output. Since 1pm can usually but not always get Channel 24 2/D3+4 (ITV channels), and always get Ch 22 C/ArqA (Dave etc). Nothing more. Channel 27 signal strength is 26-28% consistently. Using Humana set-top box and indoor aerial. In line of sight of Blaenplwy mast, about 7km away. Advice? Suggestions?

Further to previous (21.3.13), Channel 24 output of Blaenplwyf was back at 20.30pm on Thursday 21 March (yesterday), with signal strength 60%, but today at 12 noon strength had returned to 28% and no pictures were available. At least now I have realised that doing a rescan is a bad idea! I suggest this transmitter has a current problem, even if it is not a current *reported* problem. Comments??

In answer to your q, aerial is on top of my small TV set, ie it's the one that came with the set - I live close to the mast and in direct line of sight, reception has never been a prob before last Thursday

Since the weekend (11/12.12.21) I can only get the SkyArts/Dave group of channels from Blaenplwyf. BBC channels reappeared briefly, but then disappeared again
