I am missing a transmission multiplex?
Friday 11 April 2025 6:07AM

Hi Chris, I did have issues again last night. COM4 went off again at around 9pm with no signal at all. U&Dave also went off and im pretty sure thats on COM5 (Could have been another factor affecting that one, such as weather or something). Came back on at around 10.15pm but signal on COM4 was around 85% strength and fluctuating between 35% and 55% quality. I fiddled with the filters and tried both the 5G filters in series on the booster input . By the time I had finished messing about with them at about 11.45pm, I had the following:

UHF 29 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 90%
UHF 31 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 92%
UHF 37 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 92%
UHF 41 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 96%
UHF 44 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 96%
UHF 47 - Signal Quality = 100%, Strength = 95%

It was still showing these figures at 6AM this morning. I just wish I could get it to stay on in the evenings'.

Hi Chris

Sorry forgot to mention. When I click the search icon (magnifying glass), the search box has disappeared. Dont know if its affecting everyone or if its a problem with my computer.

Hi Chris. Com4 and U&Dave went off again tonight at around 9pm. However, they came back on at around 9.30 with signal strength at about 90% but quality at 35-50%. Signal strength and quality have since gone back up to roughly what they were late last night and early this morning. I just wish I knew what was causing this dropout.
