Below are all of CharlieB's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Thanks jb38. Unfortunately I do have a masthead amp which I cannot access to bypass, switching it off results in no signal at all. Just had another go at retuning with my Philips digibox, picked up some more channels on C25, results below:
C = S/Q
22 = 0-50/0-70 (No channels found)
23 = 0/0
25 = 50/40 (10 TV)
26 = 80/100 (16 TV 1 Radio)
28 = 0/0
29 = 65/45 (18 TV 9 Radio)
While 24, 26 & 28 are fairly stable, 22 fluctuates up and down between 0 and 50 for strength and 0 and 70 for quality.
Any thoughts? Many thanks.

To clarify our location, we are at Corlae near the head of a glen SSE from Cumnock, where the 2 horizontal yellow pixels of coverage are shown on the map above.

Thanks for your help jb38... it does seem odd to be getting such strong signal/quality on just one channel. There is certainly plenty of terrain between us and the transmitter, looks like we might have to move to freesat.

We are in a fairly remote location but were previously able to receive nearly all digital channels plus fairly poor quality analogue. Since yesterday's switchover we only get C26 & C29 (ArqA & ArqB) despite following initial install instructions.
Are transmissions still on low power, or do we have a problem? Ta.
