Good to hear Andrew. :)
I see so many installs which are falling apart after only a few months, sometimes sooner.
Too many of these £69 fully fitted installers about using cheap low quality materials, rubbish cheap cable (RG6) steel masts and painted brackets.
Pay the extra few quid and have your installs last 20 years not 2 years at best.
Do the maths EVERYONE £69 every 2 years over 20 years = £690
OR pay for an RDI or CAI installer who will charge around £150 for an install lasting 20 years

You are in a location where your aerial can receive from multiple transmitters.
When this happen the system can get confused about which signal to use.
I would suggest you either get an aerial fitted which is specific to your location therefore blocking all other signals or use a GROUP FILTER to block out unwanted receptions from other transmitters.
As you are also having issues with the amount of channels being received you could have a problem with other parts of the system.
Not really something a DIYer could fix.

It might be a problem with your aerial or tv, have you checked with your neighbours to see if they have lost all signal too?

TO EVERYONE-
Although Hannington not listed as having a fault I have received calls from several customers all having the same problems for the same time period.
There must be an unknown fault with this transmitter.

Hi, not commenting on you specifically, in my area a lot of £69 installers fitting rubbish aerials that fall apart when a bird flies past it let alone sit on it, brackets that rust away and cheap cable that allows too much loss when exposed to UV from the sun. and generally not fitting the stuff very well as they can just move onto the next customer without a comeback.

It depends on the problem causing it.
1. the tv
2. the system
3. the transmitter
Do you have just one tv in the house, if you have more then do they have the same problem.
what is you location via postcode?

Louise:
Just checked the transmitter in your location, Im not sure which serves you but 2 of the 3 transmitters in your location are currently having issues.
This may be your problem, not your system or tv.
