Used to get ITV3 good quality on chanel 10 (tv)

Did auto retune and no longer get itv3 or very bad signal that keeps breaking up.

Did manual retune and found Itv3 was only available on block (not sure of correct word) 29.

Again picture was very poor and kept breaking up.

Any suggestions on what needs to be done?

Hi David,

Thanks oyu for your helpful reply.

I have done a auto scan with aerial unplugged then another with aerial plugged in.

Now get a better ITV3 picture although it still breaks up sometimes.

These are the Channels I can get 22,24,25,27,29,& 54

Cannot get anything on 51, 52 or 48

I assume this means a new aerial is needed?

I notice the the centre lead in the aerial plug is not soldiered could this improve the signal if it was?

Thanks again for your help.

Colin

Thank for the update Dave.

Yes there are 3 aerials on the pole.

By the way this is for my mother in law.

She had the digital bloke round during the change over and said all is ok.

Wondering if the have a duty of care to come round again to sort it out as they have made changes.

Mother in law says why do they have to keep changing things...She's not a happy bunny

Thanks again for your helpful advice.

I keep getting message to update my tv.

Sometimes I get the update message 2/3 time on same day after switching on after being on stand by.

Is this normal or should I ignore it.

I use Waltham transmitter.

Thanks

Colin

Thanks for you help.

The out of sync is not on all channels usually just one channel others seem ok.

Retuning does not work, by the way is this the same as a powercycle?

We get signal from Waltham.

It does clear its self eventually.

Hi

I had terrible drop out last night on ITV.

Is was better when I used 804 (Central) instead of 3 (Calender)

Seems my auto tune is selecting Waltham & Belmont transmitters.

Psb1 =C22 (Belmont?) should be C49
Psb2 =C25 (Belmont?) Should be C54
Psb3 =C58 Hd not used.
Com4 =C29 Waltham
Com5 = C56 Waltham
Com6 = C57 Waltham

Would I be better off getting my Arial pointed at Sandy heath instead?

That way when I do auto re-tune it will be correct?

I have a Panasonic TX32lxd70 and my post code is pe3 8nr

Update

Late afternoon Chanel 61 (True Entertainment) kept dropping out.

This is tuned to the correct transmitter Com4 =C29 Waltham

So it's not just a Belmont problem.

I get asked to update 2/3 times a day sometimes, other times it goes weeks before I get the update screen.

Should I update or ignore it?
