My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+Tuesday 19 April 2011 7:16PM
Nottingham
Help is needed!
Basically I would like to know what if anything has happened to the Waltham transmitter since the 13th April (same time as the Nottingham Digital switch over)Multiplex 2 (ITV, Ch4 & Ch5 etc) signal strength is lower than before the 13th April resulting in poor analogue TV picture and also my Free view box has trouble picking it up sometimes. I live in NG5 8HD. I have also tried the above re-tune method and it is still the same weak signal strength (8%)
Can anybody help with this?

Hi Craig,
Copy and paste the Web address below, This PDF page states that the Waltham transmitter has performed an early channel park on the 13th April 2011 thus moving Multiplex 2 from channel 23 to the now 31. It states re-tuning but this is still no good! to be fair it is not fair at all on all viewers who have to pay TV license.

My Ariel is pointing at Waltham transmitter and since the Nottingham transmitter changed over on April 13th I have noticed a decrease in signal strength to 8% for ITV, Ch4 and Ch5. So much so it is not worthy of watching. All the other channels remain fine. It's most frustrating to iron this out and glad I'm not the only one who is experiencing similar issues. I have tried a manual tune but having read the above comments I will have to follow the picture guide above and see if it works.
