COM8 is closing and all the services that were on it have ether moved to other multiplexes or ceased.
In particular, Forces TV has moved to COM7.
Only retune messages remain on COM8.
Try a manual tune on 746 MHz, UHF C55.

Francis James Blackwell: Before you plot a course to your loft aerial, and risk life and limb getting there, try a manual tune of frequency 746 MHz. If you tell us your postcode, or that of somewhere nearby, we can perhaps offer further advice.

Francis James Blackwell: At that postcode, you are predicted to have very good reception of all channels
See for yourself:
Go to the Freeview Checker page
Platform management | Freeview
Enter your postcode and house name or number and click on Check
We need to verify that your aerial is pointing at the right Transmitter.
It will be helpful, firstly, to us to know the make and model of your receiver.
