The other half wanted to watch the snooker on ForcesTV which is what highlighted this problem in the first place.

Hi,
I'm going to leave this for now, after further digging the Philips TV can't register a signal for Ch64 Freesports whereas the JVC can.
Thank you for trying to help.

Both tvs in the same place with the same connections. The Philips TV doesn't have any signal for Freesports or any channel on the same com. The channels do sometimes show on the epg guide but no picture or sound. All the other channels on both tvs receive 90 to 100% signal and quality. I use Belmont for the best reception at my location. Never had a problem before this TV (which is turning out to be by far the worst one I've had).
Thank you for all the assistance with this but I don't think it's solvable as long as I have the Philips tv unless they up the power output for the com.
regards
Glen

Well Chris I bow to your superior knowledge. I've only 1 hdmi cable from the dvd player and made sure it's as far away from the aerial lead as possible, they were tangled up with all the other wires behind there and Freesport and all the other channels are back. If they disappear again I'll take note on what was happening at the time and post again.
Many thanks for your input on this matter.
regards
Glen

Chris, a bit more info for you, we've been experiencing picture blocking on some channels but I have manually tuned this Philips to the com frequencies as you've given above, this has at the moment solved the problem but time will tell. If it works then I'll know that auto tuning is not sometimes the best answer. Just thought that it might help others suffering from poor reception on certain channels.

We have lost the channels that are on com 7, C55 from the Belmont transmitter and it appears that this has been given over to 5g. Are the channels being reallocated to a different one or have we lost them forever?
