Winter Hill (Bolton, England) transmitter
Saturday 27 April 2013 7:10PM

I live in Clitheroe (~ 30 miles North of Manchester), and presume the most relevant transmitter is Winter Hill. I have in built freeview into an LG TV, and for the last 1-2 weeks, I have a number of missing channels, in addition to very poor signal with patchy transmission on a few others. BBC certainly seems badly affected, as does ITV and a host of other intermittently. This is despite numerous automatic retunes, manual retunes and restoration of factory settings.

Channel Number (Frequency) 50 - No Signal
Channel Number (Frequency) 59 - No Signal
Channel Number (Frequency) 54 - No Signal
Channel Number (Frequency) 58 - 6% Signal Strength, 100% Signal Quality
Channel Number (Frequency) 49 - 4% Signal Strength, 13% Signal Quality
Channel Number (Frequency) 55 - 42% Signal Strength, 100% Signal Quality

I spoke to an aerial guy today who suggested contacting LG, which I suspect isn't going to shed a huge amount of light onto the problem. Does anybody have any other suggestions or thoughts on how to go forward and correct the problem?

Hi Mazbar... Thanks for getting back to me. Stopped into a local digital / aerial store and just spoke to him in person and explained the problem. He didn't actually come out and assess the aerial. Do you think it's worth getting somebody round to check the aerial / signal out? Cheers.
