Roger: I don't need a booklet, but many little Old ladies round these parts seem to still be very vague on what to do. My Mother in Law seems to think its happened already & she doesn't need to do anything, 'cos she had a STB installed last year when Sudbury changed even though she gets her signal from Crystal Palace. DigitAl has confused her by assuming she got signal from Sudbury. Won't take any notice of me of course. "What do I know? I don't work for the Television Company?" I predict tears on 4/4/12.

Mike: Thanks for your response. I have already downloaded the booklet and printed a few copies to hand out to neighbours. Rest assured, nothing arrived last year. No Roadshow events around here until 4/4/12 with the nearest over 10 miles away,and inaccessible by public transport.

Briantist:
I was just confirming good signal etc. from Crystal Palace as so many others seemed to be reporting problems.

That should have read "Digital" signal.

I have Techwood PVR + TopUp tv + TVonics box and Hauppauge card in PC. All reporting good reception on all channels after phase one. Hauppauge card was the only fiddly one - had to remove the existing database & then do a rescan.

Kate: I have Hauppauge Win 7 running on my PC.which probably behaves in a similar way to your system. You first need to clear the existing channel database, before starting the TV program ( as opposed to TV Programme), then retune by selecting Crystal Palace as source. Is your software up to date?. Best of luck.

Kate: Sorry to hear of your continuing trouble.
When you ran set up for your TV card did you select Crystal Palace as the source? If so, and your card now can't find any thing it is probably that the software is not looking for the channels in their new frequencies. Try selecting "Any source" or "All" when scanning.
