phil: Generally, indoor aerials only work in areas of high signal strength. What's the postcode, so we can check the predicted signal?

Lee: The chances are extremely slim to none.
But according to the Digital UK tradeview link to the right of your post, you may be able to pick them up from Mendip.

Robert Walker: If you are only picking up analogue signals then it cannot be from Freeview/Saorview via an aerial. Probably UPC cable or something similar - make sure that property actually has an aerial.

Ralph Averbuch: Tried BBC1 just now on my TV with no problems, and have no noticed any problems on any channels recently. Although, I am right below the transmitter so signal never usually a problem!
But here the problem affects all of your TVs, then you either have an aerial/distribution problem, some sort of local interference or a transmitter problem. The latter is rare, and the latter two can be checked by asking neighbours if they are also having problems with BBC Freeview.

Colin Grossart: All muxes are most definitely on the air from Craigkelly, not noticed any problems recently.

ac: Make and Model of the TV please, because as far I can see from my own TV (albeit below the transmitter) they are fine.

ac: Ok that it Freeview HD - how long have you been missing the HD channels for? Perhaps the maintenance has something to do with it if the problem started recently.
Have you gone into menu > channels > manual tuning (as it usually is on Samsungs) and then tried to manually tune in UHF 21? What signal strength come up for that channel?
What signal/bit error level do you get for TV channels 1, 3, 101, 10, 11 and 18 using Menu > Support > Self Diagnosis > Signal Information?

Ken Campbell: Did you actually pay someone to install a high gain aerial and booster? Have you had these problems before you even heard of 4G?

David Jones: Not sure how you work out PSB1 has spare capacity, I'd say there is 9 streams just like PSB2:
1
2
7/70
8 (or 10 radio stations outside Scotland)
9/71
80
81(may not use full capacity though)
301 red button
and finally 200, 302 placeholder and 3 full-time radio stations
C4, like ITV and C5 has regional advertising, so needs to be on PSB2.
