julie marsden: Presumably you're referring to Eurotrash which was broadcast at midnight? Not sure what you're doing letting your "kids" watch TV at midnight, that seems a bit irresponsible if you don't want them to come across adult programmes.
But thanks for reminding me about this programme, it used to be on channel 4 but hadn't seen it for a while.

Peter: Your TV does not include a DVB-T2 tuner to allow you to pick up the Freeview HD channels.

nick: Maybe it would help if you told us what channels you're missing instead of typing out all of the muxes.
Is everyone else in the flats missing the same channels? If so it could be an aerial problem, as you do need a wideband aerial to get all of the commercial channels from Sandy Heath. Also, HD channels won't show up unless you have a DVB-T2 tuner inside a box or TV.

Joe: Wehn you say you have "absolutely zero digital reception" - when was the last time you had any channels, and do you know if your neighbours have any problems? What kind of setup do you have at home - just 1 TV, connected to an outdoor aerial?

jb38: Sorry, I may have confused you by putting Joe's postcode into the predictor in the top-right to see if it would give transmitter information! (which it still hasn't, maybe one for Briantist to look at)
Joe: There's a bit of confusion here as jb38 says. To clear it up - you definitely watch using Freesat (i.e. you do not get channels such as Dave or Yesterday)? Do you have just a satellite dish, or an aerial as well? Do you have a Freesat box, or just the Philips TV on its own?
And when you say you get no digital reception, what comes up on the screen?

Jon Eastwell: So what signal strength and/or quality came up on the screen when you did a manual scan? (presumably you used UHF 59 and 55)
The other option is there's something wrong with the transmitter after the engineering works, but that would affect more than just yourself, so check with your neighbours when you get a chance.

Andrea green: According to Digital UK, there are planned engineering works on the transmitter this week:

roz: It's on Sky Sports 1, presumably you need to subscribe to the Sports package to get it.
